[TIMOB-26963] iOS: Require'ing a JSON file appends file path to resulting JSON string

When using require() to load a JSON file on iOS, the filename and base-url are appended to the final JSON object. Example:

const data = require('currencies.json');
console.log(data);

Workaround:

const data = JSON.parse(Ti.Filesystem.getFile(Ti.Filesystem.resourcesDirectory, 'currencies.json').read());

File	Date	Size
currencies.json	2019-04-04T08:02:23.000+0000	17458

I filed a quick PR for this in https://github.com/appcelerator/titanium_mobile/pull/10929 - the fields seem old and are likely redundant. Everything worked in my test app, so I'd assume they're ok to be removed.
