For a BundleInstallation script, can I no longer add a library file in v2.0?

My understanding in no.  When the module tries to load to execute the `beforeInstall` function, your custom modules do not exist in the account yet.

Crap.  Well, I'm really doing everything in the afterInstall ... and in SS1, we had a company-wide library file that we did some post install actions.  No, in SS2.0, it fails saying that module (file) doesn't exist.  Of course, it does.

My guess would be that since the script you specify must be able to respond to `beforeInstall`, the installer loads your script before it begins installation and wires up the entry points then, but the file doesn't exist yet

So even though you're not actually using `beforeInstall`, the script has to get loaded before anything occurs, and they don't check again during `afterInstall` - That's just a hypothesis; I have no evidence or testing to prove that's how it works

So, the take away here is, embed anything I need at 'installation' time into one file ... don't reference anything externally.   Sucks, but at least I have a way forward
