Proposal for an Alternative to Moq Library #3523

Feature description

Dear Playnite Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to discuss a concern regarding the recent behavior of the Moq library, specifically starting from version 4.20. It has come to our attention that this library has exhibited behavior resembling that of malware, sending unauthorized emails from Git to cloud services. As Playnite project currently utilizes version 4.10.1, which is considered safe, I recommend refraining from updating to the problematic versions.

In light of this situation, I would like to propose the exploration of alternative mocking libraries for Playnite project. Given the critical role of mocking in testing and development processes, it is imperative to maintain a high level of security and reliability.

Thanks for the info. Yeah this looks pretty worrying, I'll look into alternatives for P11.
