Wrong grammar in help for CLI `cypress open --global`

[MikeMcC399]

Current behavior

The help text for the CLI option --global displays as

force Cypress into global mode as if its globally installed

Desired behavior

The text should be grammatically correct, for instance by writing

force Cypress into global mode as if it is globally installed

or

force Cypress into global mode as if it were globally installed

See also CLI documentation cypress open --global

npx cypress open -h
