Error while using `sync` to create a drive. about cli HOT 3 OPEN

I hit this same error on Windows 10 home. I believe it's caused by https://github.com/hypercore-protocol/cli/blob/master/lib/commands/drive/sync.js#L66 it's using the mkdirp NodeJS package 'sync' command, and according to https://www.npmjs.com/package/mkdirp:

"""windows vs unix caveat

On Windows file systems, attempts to create a root directory (ie, a drive letter or root UNC path) will fail. If the root directory exists, then it will fail with EPERM. """

And of course, EPERM is the exact error you and I are seeing on Windows.

I am not having any problems with hyp cli on Linux, but I'm trying to set up a hyp sync to back up my kids' files on their Windows gaming PCs.

Thanks @Michael-S ! I think I'll open a PR for this.

Cool! I'm too new to Node to solve this myself.
