Document behavior of `create_dir_all` wrt. empty path

The behavior makes sense because `Path::new("one_component").parent() == Some(Path::new(""))`, so if one naively wants to create the parent directory for a file to be written, it simply works.

Closes rust-lang#105108 by documenting the current behavior.
