Summary: CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS while uploading via SSH

Initial Comment:
Curl version: 7.23.1
Some FTP servers response "PERMISSION DENIED" in case of impossibility to change current directory.
File "/lib/ssh.c", line 1547:

          else if(((err == LIBSSH2_FX_NO_SUCH_FILE) ||
                   (err == LIBSSH2_FX_FAILURE) ||
                   (err == LIBSSH2_FX_NO_SUCH_PATH)

There should be processed one additional case:
                    (err == LIBSSH2_FX_PERMISSION_DENIED)

I am not sure what is good way to distinguish real insufficient of permissions from this special case, but at least FTP Server "freeFTPd" shows this issue while using CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS with SSH connection.

Message:
I'm reluctant to add this due to the false positive risk. To me this looks
more like a broken SFTP implementation... iirc, this works fine on other
sftp servers.
