ng deploy doesn't work under windows

[chrste90]

This is an issue created for #2086 (comment) as asked by @mgechev

Version info

Angular: 8.0.0

Firebase: 6.1.0

AngularFire: 5.2.0

Angular CLI: 8.0.0

How to reproduce these conditions

Steps to set up and reproduce

Create a new CLI project under windows, run ng add @angular/fire and run ng run deploy.

Debug output

ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '\C\Users\name\project\.firebaserc'

but the file exists and i can manually run firebase deploy.

Expected behavior

Deployment of the application.

Actual behavior

Error during deployment.

Some debugging informations

I tried to find the source of the problem and it seems to come from https://github.com/angular/angularfire2/blob/8e5a99561fe35ff5705a4223b2b6b7406ec236ad/src/schematics/utils.ts#L59-L70

projectRoot under windows is starting with /c/... instead of c:/.... If i change the path to c:/, the deployment is working.
