download_url() doesn't check that leading directories for a target exist, resulting in a failing .download() call, but it's reasonable for a download_url() caller to expect that directories will be created if needed, especially given `git annex addurl --file ...` does so. Ensuring target directories exist seems desirable for all .download() callers, so handle it within downloaders/base.py rather than in download_url(). Fixes datalad#3642.

0.11.7 (Sep 02, 2019) -- python2-we-still-love-you-but-...
Primarily bugfixes with some optimizations and refactorings.
Fixes
- [addurls][]
- now provides better handling when the URL file isn't in the
expected format. ([#3579][])
- always considered a relative file for the URL file argument as
relative to the current working directory, which goes against the
convention used by other commands of taking relative paths as
relative to the dataset argument. ([#3582][])
- [run-procedure][]
- hard coded "python" when formatting the command for non-executable
procedures ending with ".py". `sys.executable` is now used.
([#3624][])
- failed if arguments needed more complicated quoting than simply
surrounding the value with double quotes. This has been resolved
for systems that support `shlex.quote`, but note that on Windows
values are left unquoted. ([#3626][])
- [siblings][] now displays an informative error message if a local
path is given to `--url` but `--name` isn't specified. ([#3555][])
- [sshrun][], the command DataLad uses for `GIT_SSH_COMMAND`, didn't
support all the parameters that Git expects it to. ([#3616][])
- Fixed a number of Unicode py2-compatibility issues. ([#3597][])
- [download-url][] now will create leading directories of the output path
if they do not exist ([#3646][])
Enhancements and new features
- The [annotate-paths][] helper now caches subdatasets it has seen to
avoid unnecessary calls. ([#3570][])
- A repeated configuration query has been dropped from the handling of
`--proc-pre` and `--proc-post`. ([#3576][])
- Calls to `git annex find` now use `--in=.` instead of the alias
`--in=here` to take advantage of an optimization that git-annex (as
of the current release, 7.20190730) applies only to the
former. ([#3574][])
- [addurls][] now suggests close matches when the URL or file format
contains an unknown field. ([#3594][])
- Shared logic used in the setup.py files of Datalad and its
extensions has been moved to modules in the _datalad_build_support/
directory. ([#3600][])
- Get ready for upcoming git-annex dropping support for direct mode
([#3631][])

callers, so handle it within downloaders/base.py rather than in
