Error handling is not working

[averri]

Current behavior:

The fail event is not being captured when a test fails. This is a violation of the Cypress specification.

Desired behavior:

The fail event should be captured when a test fails, giving the opportunity to ignore the failure.

Test code to reproduce

error_handling.feature:

Feature: Error handling

  Scenario: Error should not fail the test
    Given I want to ignore any error
    When I execute an action that generate an error
    Then The test should pass

steps.js:

const {Given, When, Then} = require("cypress-cucumber-preprocessor/steps")

Given('I want to ignore any error', () => {
  cy.on('fail', () => {
    console.log('Ignoring this error.')
    return false
  })
})

When('I execute an action that generate an error', () => {
  cy.wrap({}).click({timeout: 1000})
})

Then('The test should pass', () => {
  // Do nothing.
})

Due to personal reasons, the previous maintainers of this package are stepping down and handing the reigns over to me, a long-time contributor to the project and a user of it myself. This is a responsibility I'm very excited about. Furthermore, I'd like to thank @lgandecki ++ for all the work that they've done so far.
