bitbake: fetch2: Ensure directory exists before creating symlink

If the mirrors code is trying to create a symlink and the
parent directory doesn't exist, as might be the case for sstate
mirrors where the fetch is into a subdir, it can silently fail.

Ensure the directory exists in this case to avoid issues.
