Missing temporary directory causes CameraInstance to return undefined.

[shawjb]

Hi there interesting project I am giving it a quick try.

On my initial run if the temporary directory is missing which it will always be since the program has never been run the rm command here https://github.com/n1ckyrush/wyzecam-hls/blob/master/methods/createCameraInstance.js#L39 fails and causes the camera instance to be undefined which causes issues down stream. I was able to get around this by manually creating the directory then running the app and it seems to be fine from there.

It's late so I haven't submitted a PR but I was thinking a few things here.

1. Change it so that the command checks for existence first then deletes it.
2. Undefined camera instance should be removed from the camera instances array.
3. Have the app clean up it's temporary directories when it is stopped
4. Put the temporary files in to the system temp directory

What exactly do I need to create and where because I keep getting that undefined error in all my streams. I assume this is what you meant?

I've gotten to where I can telnet into the camera's...just not sure what to "fix".
