Adds test cases for on directories that already exist:

  1. on a directory that already exists (should succeed silently)
  2. to create a new subdirectory within an already-existing tree

Fixes #1022

Thank you! Two optional suggestions, but this looks good

Remove the '-p' from this call, to make it clearer that this is part of the setup and not the real test (which is the next call to shell.mkdir('-p', ...)).

test('-p flag: create new subdirectory within existing tree', t => {

suggestion: let's remove parent from this call (but leave it in the next call).

Then in the portion of the test below, let's have calls to fs.existsSync() for both '.../parent' and '.../parent/child' to verify both directories are created. This will give us test coverage that mkdir('-p') can create multiple directories in the hierarchy while also testing that we can work within an existing directory tree.
