Rollup merge of #70448 - TimotheeGerber:rustdoc-create-output-dir, r=GuillaumeGomez

Create output dir in rustdoc markdown render

`rustdoc` command on a standalone markdown document fails because the output directory (which default to `doc/`) is not created, even when specified with the `--output` argument.

This PR adds the creation of the output directory before the file creation to avoid an unexpected error which is unclear.

I am not sure about the returned error code. I did not find a table explaining them. So I simply put the same error code that is returned when `File::create` fails because they are both related to file-system errors.

Resolve #70431
