The CJS mock.timers.setTime example asserted the timer ran right after setTime() with no tick() call, which contradicts the documented behavior and the ESM example above it. The mock.module example called .fn() on an export named foo. Both threw if run. Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Yusufu Kimaswa <kimaswaemma36@gmail.com>

Two examples in the test runner mocking docs were wrong and would throw if run:
mock.timers.setTimeexample assertedcallCount() === 1right aftersetTime(1200)with notick()call. That contradicts the sentence just above it ("Timers scheduled in the past will not run when you callsetTime()") and the ESM version of the same example, which keeps the count at 0 and callstick(0)to execute the timer. Aligned the CJS version with the ESM one (and its test name).mock.moduleexample mocks an export namedfoobut then callsesmImpl.fn()/cjsImpl.fn(), so it throws on an undefinedfn. Changed the four.fnreferences to.foo.
