babel-register doesn't look at .babelrc for only and ignore settings (T7098)

[babel-bot]

Issue originally made by @fracmak

Bug information

• Babel version: 6.5.2
• Node version: 0.12.7
• npm version: 2.11.3

Options

{
    "ignore": "**"
}

Input code

mocha --compilers js:babel-register

Description

When using babel-register, it does not look at any babel config files in deciding what files to compile. The only way to configure ignore and only is by require('babel-register')({only: false, ignore: '**'}).

I've put in a pull request showing a possible solution for the bug:

#3291

Still problem with babel 6.9.0, node 6 and npm 3.

This should be fixed in Babel 7 with #5487

can test with:
"babel-core": "7.0.0-alpha.3"
"babel-cli": "7.0.0-alpha.3"
"babel-register": "7.0.0-alpha.5"
