prosody, prosodyctl: Load loader directly from source directory
This should ensure that loader.lua is loaded from the source directory
and does the right thing when installed with `make install`
There are currently three ways Prosody can be run:
- Directly from the source directory, like `./prosody`
- Installed with `make install`
- Installed into Lua paths with e.g. dh-lua or luarocks
In the first two cases, Lua search paths need to include the source
directory and ensure that `require "prosody.util.json"` ends up loading
`util/json.lua` relative to the installation (CFG_SOURCEDIR) or the
source checkout.
Finally, in the last case where Prosody resources are installed under the
'prosody.*' namespace in regular Lua search paths, then loader.lua should
activate the compatibility mode that makes sure that both
`require"util.json"` and `require"prosody.util.json"` both resolve to
`(one path from of package.path)/prosody/util/json.lua`
