Summary: Auto create target directory tree when upload by ftp

Initial Comment:
Would it be possible to implement a feature which
permits to mkdir non-existing directories on the target
tree structure, when doing an ftp upload ?

exemple (I assume the new command line argument
would be --create-target-tree) :
curl -u anonymous:nopwd --create-target-tree -T
C:\test.dat - ftp://targetftp/test/1/2/3/

=> if /test/1 exists, creates /test/1/2 and /test/1/2/3
before uploading, to be shure that it won't fail if user
has write permission.
=> if /test/1/2/3 exists, just upload the file !

I think it would be very useful and i don't think it is too
complex to implement (seeing quality and features of
actual cURL releases !).

Thanks.

PS : Tried it with multiple -Q options, but fails if part of
target tree already exists.
