The 'task' event has not been registered in the setupNodeEvents method. You must register it before using cy.task()

Hi all,

It's my first time using cypress-axe and I am trying to set up the extra logs for violationCallback. I am new to development, so bear with me if this is not the right place to post, or if I need to clarify more info. I will do my best to give as much information as possible. Please let me know if I can improve my github issue posting.

Cypress version: Version 13.6.0 (13.6.0.2421135) js/ts: Typescript Error message: The 'task' event has not been registered in the setupNodeEvents method. You must register it before using cy.task()

    setupNodeEvents(on, config) {
      module.exports = (on, config) => {
        on('task', {
          log(message) {
            console.log(message)
            return null
          },
