This is demonstration for how to use require.js in content scripts

This demostration extends require.js to use the library in chrome's content scripts by monkeypatching.

This code is once posted in the require.js' forum. The original require.js implementation of script loading is inserting <script> to the document and handling load event. But chrome isolates the script execution context in tabs from content scripts. Although content scripts is injected into the tab's context, module files are loaded into extension's context. This monkeypatch fixes them by loading modules to tab's context by XHR to the extension's URL and evaling the response.
