DTD Syntax Doc: <mkdir> needs to speak about -p support

Description

under <mkdir>, it might be good to tell the reader that the use of the <option>parents</option> also keeps <mkdir> from reporting an error if the target directory already exists; then again, this is an implementation specific detail and an implementation that didn't actually use "mkdir -p" wouldn't behave this way, so maybe not such a good idea
