Fix to order of module discovery

[akamat10]

Type of Changes

	Type
✓	🐛 Bug fix

Description

• Addresses the issues with module path discovery identified on Inconsistent and sometimes incorrect false positive of no-member error pylint#9883
• Updated tests to reflect current python behavior when calling a script. Details of the expected behavior described here

[akamat10]

One thing this fix needs to consider is how the order of module discovery changes based on whether a user calls:

python3.12 pkg/script.py

vs

python3.12 -m pkg.script

The difference in behavior is described here in a stackoverflow post.

The test fixes to test_nonregr_absolute_import case will now match the former case but perhaps some thought needs to be given to the latter case and have some test cases around it.

Sorry for not reviewing this sooner, this is the kind of change that are hard to assess/test and it's frightening 😅

[akamat10]

No need to be sorry. I should reevaluate this given it has been a while since I have looked at this one.
