Like `require`, but returns `nil` if a module does not exist, instead of throwing an error.

Outputs are cached, which is faster for all modules, but much faster for nonexistent modules, since `require` will attempt to use the full loader each time because loading failures don't get cached.]==]

Like `mw.loadData`, but it does not generate a new table each time the same module is loaded via this function. Instead, it caches the returned data so that the same table can be returned each time, which is more efficient.]==]

Like `export.load_data` (itself a variant of `mw.loadData`), but returns `nil` if a module does not exist, instead of throwing an error.
