Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]

When a storage medium is mounted in windows it should also be mounted in wsl. For example if my only disk is C drive and I insert a usb on windows that becomes D drive. So on linux that should be known as /dev/SDD

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

If and only if wsl is running a hook should allow storage mediums to be mounted if they are mounted on windows.

Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

Currently I am manually mounting my storage mediums with a command like:

sudo mount -t drvfs f: /mnt/f

Additional context
Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

The reason this is a good idea is that it improves the integration between wsl and windows and makes programming on wsl easier.
