module: avoid JSON.stringify() for cache key

By avoiding JSON.stringify() and simply joining the strings with a
delimiter that does not appear in paths, we can improve cached
require() performance by at least 50%.

Additionally, this commit removes the last source of permanent
function deoptimization (const) for _findPath().
