pCloud Go client, for the rest of us

This is a pCloud client written in Go for cross-platform compatibility, such as a Raspberry Pi in my use-case.

NOTE: I'm not affiliated to pCloud so this project is as good or as bad as it gets.

See Sync.

The original driver for this project is to create a pCloud client for my Raspberry Pi4.

While pCloud's console client seemed to tick the boxes, I wasn't able to use it for two reasons:

it creates a virtual drive - files are not stored on my local storage as I require. In my set-up, cloud storage is a convenience (backup and remote access), not an extension / replacement of my local storage.
I elected to create a mirror from the pCloud virtual drive (that the console-client creates) to my local storage. While this would work well for my needs (using pCloud as the primary source of truth, and the mirror as a local replica), I found that both rsync and unison were confronted to an I/O deadlock when downloading data. The console-client appears to have an issue in its internal cache management and that blocks all I/O. Recovery involves restarting the pCloud console-client daemon but the story repeats again and the mirror cannot complete.
