refactor: simplify internal require() calls (#4056)

Remove unnecessary `__dirname` template-literal prefix from relative
`require()` paths. Node.js resolves relative require() paths correctly
without it.

While this may look like nitpicking: `require("./server")` is
transparent to static analysis tools - IDEs can resolve the path and
support go-to-definition. Template literals with `__dirname` are opaque
to them. It also removes another usage of `__dirname`, which has no
native equivalent in ESM and would need to be replaced there anyway
(when we switch to ESM anytime in the future).

The import reordering is a side effect: `import-x/order` treats
template-literal `require()` calls differently from plain strings, so
the previous order was no longer valid.
