Make :write recursively create parent folders by default

[lukepighetti]

Reproduction

• hx /tmp/path/to/deep/file.txt
• write some text
• :write

Error: Async job failed: can't save file, parent directory does not exist

Expected Result

Create all the parent folders automatically. This mirrors the expected behavior from IDE editors like VSCode.

This is the behavior of the new :write! command: #1839

[lukepighetti]

Thanks for the fast triage, out of curiosity, any reason why a new command was created?

See #1839 (comment)

expected behavior from IDE editors

This isn't common by default in editors like nvim, kakoune or emacs though.

The :command vs :command! are sort of similar to command vs sudo command in the shell
