v12.0.0 seems to have the wrong binary version

[Sher-Chowdhury]

I started seeing odd problems when I tried upgrading from v11.0.0 to v12.0.0.

For example the binary version is as expected when pulling in c8 v11.0.0:

$ rm -rf node_modules
$ cat package.json | jq '.devDependencies.c8'
"^11.0.0"
$ npm install
$ npm list c8                            
xxxx@1.0.0 /x/x/xxxx
└── c8@11.0.0
$./node_modules/.bin/c8 --version       
11.0.0

All of this looks good. But if update the package.json to pull in c8 v12.0.0, and repeat the above steps, I somehow end up pulling in version 1.0.0 of the binary:

$ rm -rf node_modules 
$ cat package.json | jq '.devDependencies.c8'
"^12.0.0"
$ npm install
$ npm list c8                            
xxxx@1.0.0 /x/x/xxxx
└── c8@12.0.0
./node_modules/.bin/c8 --version           
1.0.0
