webdriver-manager version 12.1.7 Issue when downloading latest 78 version chromedriver

[gemelgb]

Command webdriver-manager update --gecko=false

Downloads 78.0.3904.11/chromedriver_win32.zip rather than 78.0.3904.70/chromedriver_win32.zip.

Bug in the code chrome_xml.ts:

Method name: getSpecificChromeDriverVersion

if (itemFound == '') {
if (this.osarch === 'x64' ||
(this.osarch !== 'x64' && !item.includes(this.getOsTypeName() + '64'))) {
itemFound = item;
console.log(this.osarch + " item registered chromedriver--->" + itemFound);
}
}
else if (this.osarch === 'x64') {
if (item.includes(this.getOsTypeName() + '64')) {
itemFound = item;
console.log(this.osarch + " item registered chromedriver--->" + itemFound);
}
}
Since the else if can never be satisfied (since chrome driver will never deliver a win64 version you would need to adjust the code to:

else if (this.osarch === 'x64') {
if (item.includes(this.getOsTypeName() + '64') || (item.includes(this.getOsTypeName() + '32') && this.getOsTypeName() == 'win')) {

Include a or '32' which is the case so the latest 78.0.3904.70/chromedriver_win32.zip can be downloaded!

If you want I can open a PR for you??
