Copy-webpack-plugin: not copy the files in node v 6.0.0

[Onionz]

This is my plugin configuration:

new CopyWebpackPlugin([
   { from: 'src/image', to: 'image' },
   { from: 'src/vendor', to: 'vendor' }
])

It works fine with node v 5.8.1 but it does not copy any file with node v 6.0.0.

Webpack shows 'ERROR in Path must be a string. Received undefined' in the console.

Hi, I used 1.1 version before. I just tested with the newest version 2.1.3, still get the same problem.

This is because we use gulp to build underneath, which has an underlying issue: https://github.com/gulpjs/gulp/issues/1571

I guess in the meantime it would be good to warn people in the readme of this issue (that the plugin is not compatible with node v6) - and/or additionally providing a meaningful error message in the webpack output (e.g. "CopyWebpackPlugin is not yet compatible with Node v6"). Nailing down the issue of why my relatively complex webpack build was failing due to this plugin was really not a quick one...

This should be resolved in v2.1.4

@christopherallanperry can you create new issue and create minimum reproducible test repo?

@evilebottnawi in the process of creating the repo, I was able to resolve whatever was causing the problem, though I'm unsure how. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
