Subject: feat: ":write ++p" creates parent dirs #20835
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- `:write ++p foo/bar/baz.txt` should create parent directories `foo/bar/` if
   they do not exist
    - Note: `:foo ++…` is usually for options. No existing options have
      a single-char abbreviation (presumably by design), so it's safe to
      special-case `++p` here.
- Same for `writefile(…, 'foo/bar/baz.txt', 'p')`
- `BufWriteCmd` can see the ++p flag via `v:cmdarg`.

closes #19884
