+ * Finds the path of the installed npm package with the given name using Node's
+ * module resolution algorithm, which searches "node_modules" directories up to
+ * the file system root. This handles various cases, including:
+ *
+ *   - Working in the open-source RN repo:
+ *       Gradle: /path/to/react-native/ReactAndroid
+ *       Node module: /path/to/react-native/node_modules/[package]
+ *
+ *   - Installing RN as a dependency of an app and searching for hoisted
+ *     dependencies:
+ *       Gradle: /path/to/app/node_modules/react-native/ReactAndroid
+ *       Node module: /path/to/app/node_modules/[package]
+ *
+ *   - Working in a larger repo (e.g., Facebook) that contains RN:
+ *       Gradle: /path/to/repo/path/to/react-native/ReactAndroid
+ *       Node module: /path/to/repo/node_modules/[package]
+ *
+ * The search begins at the given base directory (a File object). The returned
+ * path is a string.
