feat(@embark/core): Recursively import contracts

Add support to recursively import contracts. If we have three contracts

1. A imports B
2. B imports C

Then prior to this PR, contract A would import contract B, and a remapping would be added to the contract so the compiler would know how to find contract B. However, contract B imports contracts C, and because the `parseFileForImport` method was not recursive, the remappings were not able to go one level deeper to remap the path to contract C, and thus the compiler would not know how to locate contract C, and would complain with the error `File outside of allowed directories.`

With the introduction of this PR, the `parseFileForImport` method is now recursive, and so any contract imported is also checked for it's own imports that can be remapped. Specifically, this use case is applicable when there is a dependency containing contracts that imports one of it's own dependency's contracts, ie:

```
pragma solididty ^0.5.0;

import "dependency-1/contract-1.sol";
```
where the dependencies look like:
```
|- node_modules
|--- dependency-1
|----- contract-1.sol <--- contains import "dependency-2/contract-2.sol"
|--- dependency-2
|----- contract-2.sol
```

Add unit tests that verify recursive imports work.
Add embark depdendency that installs a contract used in the recursive unit tests.
