-### `stringifyRequest`
-
-Turns a request into a string that can be used inside `require()` or `import` while avoiding absolute paths.
-Use it instead of `JSON.stringify(...)` if you're generating code inside a loader.
-
-**Why is this necessary?** Since webpack calculates the hash before module paths are translated into module ids, we must avoid absolute paths to ensure
-consistent hashes across different compilations.
-
-This function:
-
-- resolves absolute requests into relative requests if the request and the module are on the same hard drive
-- replaces `\` with `/` if the request and the module are on the same hard drive
-- won't change the path at all if the request and the module are on different hard drives
-- applies `JSON.stringify` to the result
-
-```javascript
-loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "./test.js");
-// "\"./test.js\""
-
-loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, ".\\test.js");
-// "\"./test.js\""
-
-loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "test");
-// "\"test\""
-
-loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "test/lib/index.js");
-// "\"test/lib/index.js\""
-
-loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "otherLoader?andConfig!test?someConfig");

-
-loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, require.resolve("test"));
-// "\"../node_modules/some-loader/lib/test.js\""
-
-loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "C:\\module\\test.js");
-// "\"../../test.js\"" (on Windows, in case the module and the request are on the same drive)
