13.8.8 prompt-for-file :direction and :create-directories

editor:prompt-for-file now takes a :direction argument. You can specify direction :input (when expecting to read the file) or direction :output (when expecting to write the file).

editor:prompt-for-file also has a new :create-directories argument. If create-directories is true, then the user is prompted to create any missing directories in the path she enters.
