Description
### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently the folders:create endpoint can only create one folder per call which means creating deeper structures is complicated.
### Describe the solution you'd like
With some additional logic the command for creating folders could check for '/' in the requested folder name and create the whole given path if a path is given rather than a folder
### Describe alternatives you've considered
Alternatively this could be a separate command. eg. folders:createpath
### Additional context
I did a proof of concept with the code below added to the folders:create command
```
if(params.body.name.includes('/')) {
let pathParts = params.body.name.split('\/');
let createdFolder;
for (let i = 0; i < pathParts.length; i++) {
params.body.name=pathParts[i];
try {
createdFolder = await this.client.folders.create(params.body.parent.id,params.body.name);
params.body.parent.id=createdFolder.id
}
catch(error) {
if(error.statusCode==409) {
//console.log(error.response.body.context_info.conflicts[0].id);
params.body.parent.id=error.response.body.context_info.conflicts[0].id;
createdFolder=error.response.body.context_info.conflicts[0];
}
}
};
```
