You don't need to require sh-script.el. sh-mode is autolaoded function
so Emacs will load sh-script when sh-mode is invoked automatically.

It depends if you want your code to run only once, when sh-script.el is
loaded or do you want it to run each every time the mode is loaded,
which will happen every time you open or create a shell file.

If you wish to modify key shortcuts, with-eval-after-load is probably
better place.
