Web5-Connect-Recover.md

1. In a clean folder, copy connect.ts and recover.ts
2. Set a password in connect.ts
3. Run tsx connect.ts and let it run. It'll hang at the sync, let it sit for a 10 sec or so then kill it.
4. Copy the recovery phrase that prints out, and make note of the did identities it created.
5. Delete the DATA folder, paste the recovery phrase into recover.ts and run tsx recover.ts

Note You'll need to checkout this branch on our repo and build locally: https://github.com/FormFree/web5-js/tree/api/web5-recover Then you'll need to start a new npm project and run npm install /path/to/FormFree/web5-js/clone/api/web5-recover/branch
