Describe the bug

On Windows 10 with Node 18.17.1, vitest always writes the snapshot files when running the tests, even if there are no changes in the snapshot. This leads to unnecessary writes and changed files in the repo.

Reason for this issue is this code:

readSnapshotFile always reads an empty string ("") on Windows. Additionally, many repos on windows have git config autocrlf enabled.

I fixed it with the following patch:

const readSnapshotFile = async (filepath) => {
    if (!existsSync(filepath)) {
        return null;
    }
    return promises
        .readFile(filepath, { encoding: "utf-8" })
        .then((content) => (process.platform === "win32" ? content.replace(/\r\n|\r/g, "\n") : content));
}; 

Reproduction

Can be reproced on any Windows machine with Node 18.17.1 and vitest with snapshots.
