bug: ESM_UNSUPPORTED_ESM_URL_SCHEME for `-t browser` in windows

[SgtPooki]

Describe the bug

Error importing from ESM package via playwright when running on windows. Note that I modified node_modules/playwright-test/cli.js:111:15 locally so that we could get the filepath:
filepath C:\Users\sgtpo\code\work\protocol.ai\ipfs\js-kubo-rpc-client\node_modules\aegir\src\config\pw-test.js

node --version 
v18.12.1

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. on windows
2. Go to commit 65d42f18595dc938c81ab516ba41dc3b5133c560 on https://github.com/ipfs/js-kubo-rpc-client
3. run npm install
4. run npm install aegir@latest (also occuring on old version, but attempted to use latest to check bug)
5. run npm run test -- -t browser
6. See error:

filepath C:\Users\sgtpo\code\work\protocol.ai\ipfs\js-kubo-rpc-client\node_modules\aegir\src\config\pw-test.js
Error [ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ESM_URL_SCHEME]: Only URLs with a scheme in: file, data are supported by the default ESM loader. On Windows, absolute paths must be valid file:// URLs. Received protocol 'c:'

Also getting this on the LTS version of node (v18.16.1 (64-bit))

Is this still a problem? If it's fixed by a PR to playwright it might need an update to https://github.com/hugomrdias/playwright-test - if that goes out as a patch release or a minor there'd be nothing to do here, correct?
