Description

Currently a wagon request to remotely create a deep subdirectory (unix equivalent would be mkdir -p /dir1/dir2/dir3) will result in a MKD invocation with the full deep subdirectory path.

According to the FTP specification this is not valid (RFC-959 http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc959.html APPENDIX II - DIRECTORY COMMANDS).

There might be some FTP servers out there which curreclty create the directory, but 2 ftpd I tried just returned an error.

Instead we should split up the directory paths and walk over them recursively.
