[api-minor] Tweak the Node.js fake worker loader to prevent Critical dependency: ... warnings from Webpack

Since bundlers, such as Webpack, cannot be told to leave `require` statements alone we are thus forced to jump through hoops in order to prevent these warnings in third-party deployments of the PDF.js library; please see [Webpack issue 8826](https://github.com/webpack/webpack) and libraries such as [require-fool-webpack](https://github.com/sindresorhus/require-fool-webpack).

*Please note:* This is based on the assumption that code running in Node.js won't ever be affected by e.g. Content Security Policies that prevent use of `eval`. If that ever occurs, we should revert to a normal `require` statement and simply document the Webpack warnings instead.
