Cypress tests now pass with this patch

Wikibase's wdio selenium tests fail because repo/tests/selenium/wdio.conf.js and client/tests/selenium/wdio.conf.js use __dirname (CommonJS) while running in ES module context

Fix: update wdio-mediawiki from 5.1.0 to latest (6.2.0) and replace bare __dirname in those two files with the new Util.dirname() helper

@zeljkofilipin @Peter Could you guys handle the wdio-mediawiki upgrade?
