/**
 * provides a mechanism to transform code in the scope of `require` or `vm.createScript`.
 * This mechanism is general and relies on a user-supplied `matcher` function that determines when transformations should be
 * performed and a user-supplied `transformer` function that performs the actual transform.
 * Instrumenting code for coverage is one specific example of useful hooking.
 *
 * Note that both the `matcher` and `transformer` must execute synchronously.
 *
 * For the common case of matching filesystem paths based on inclusion/ exclusion patterns, use the `matcherFor`
 * function in the istanbul API to get a matcher.
 *
 * It is up to the transformer to perform processing with side-effects, such as caching, storing the original
 * source code to disk in case of dynamically generated scripts etc. The `Store` class can help you with this.
 *
 * Usage
 * -----
 *
 *      var hook = require('istanbul').hook,
 *          myMatcher = function (file) { return file.match(/foo/); },
 *          myTransformer = function (code, file) { return 'console.log("' + file + '");' + code; };
 *
 *      hook.hookRequire(myMatcher, myTransformer);
 *
 *      var foo = require('foo'); //will now print foo's module path to console
 *
 * @class Hook
 * @module main
