@vitest/coverage-c8 is deprecated as Vitest no longer uses c8 package for coverage output. It will not be updated anymore, and Vitest will fail in the next version if the user has c8 as their coverage provider. Please, install the new @vitest/coverage-v8 package if you previously used @vitest/coverage-c8.spy.mockRestore on auto-mocked named exports will no longer restore their implementation to the actual function.
