How to create a dir with `fromJSON` without using a temp file?

See original GitHub issue

mock-fs supports a nested structure and represents empty dirs as empty objects.

At present I am using the flat module to take a nested structure into fromJSON, but there seems no way to create dirs without dummy files.

@alex996 while it does technically work at runtime, I think the types should remain as requiring null because using {} naturally leads to assuming { '/some-dir': { '/some-nested-dir': {} } } would work, which it doesn’t (for that you need to call fromNestedJSON), and because {} in TS actually means an open object, so it makes it a bit of a footgun & technically a breaking change if we wanted to say merge fromJSON & fromNestedJSON.
