Avoid need to append "/." for make_directories

* src/extract.c (make_directories): New arg JUST_PARENT.
All callers changed.
* src/misc.c (struct wd.name, add_wd, chdir_arg):
Use char *, not char const *, to let make_directories
temporarily alter slashes.  All uses changed.
(chdir_do): Do not create a new name with trailing "/."
because make_directories no longer needs this.
