rustdoc: auto create output directory when "--output-format json"

This PR allows rustdoc to automatically create output directory in case
it does not exist (when run with `--output-format json`).

This fixes rustdoc crash:

````
$ rustdoc --output-format json -Z unstable-options src/main.rs
error: couldn't generate documentation: No such file or directory (os error 2)
  |
  = note: failed to create or modify "doc/main.json"

error: aborting due to previous error
````

With this fix behavior of `rustdoc --output-format json` becomes consistent
with `rustdoc --output-format html` (which already auto-creates output
directory if it's missing)
