Description

Right now this module is really a cli that has been hacked to a do bit more. We should move away from that design so that it can be used to ask questions about a files dependencies rather than simply throwing errors when unexpected versions arise.

Research direction

Start by reading the current CLI entry point and the module that checks resolved node_modules against package.json. Determine how the existing command reports unexpected versions and what interface would let callers ask about a file's dependencies. Done means the functionality is usable as a module rather than only as a CLI, with the intended dependency queries supported.
