emacs: add prompt to create maildir for fcc if it does not exist.

If the user specifies a maildir that does not exist, prompt the user to
see whether a maildir should be created. This will fail, with the
relevant explanation, if the location is not writable, or if a file
already exists in that location. If the location is a dir, but not a
maildir, this will add /tmp/cur/new to it.
