fix(recording): create the selected recording directory, not its parent

The recording toggles took a directory from the prefix-arg prompt (or the default), then ran (file-name-directory location) before make-directory. For a path without a trailing slash that returns the parent, so make-directory created the parent and left the selected directory uncreated — ffmpeg then failed to write into it.

Both toggles now route the destination through cj/recording--normalize-recording-dir, which expands and applies file-name-as-directory, then call make-directory on that normalized path. The selected directory itself is created (parents=t is a no-op when it already exists), including names with spaces. Tests cover trailing-slash normalization, idempotence, spaces, and relative-to-absolute expansion.

+;;; test-video-audio-recording--normalize-recording-dir.el --- Tests for recording-dir normalization -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
+
+;;; Commentary:
+;; Unit tests for cj/recording--normalize-recording-dir.
+;; The recording target is always a directory that ffmpeg writes a
+;; timestamped file into.  Normalization must yield an absolute directory
+;; path with a trailing slash so the *selected* directory (not its parent)
+;; is the one created and recorded into.
+
+;;; Code:
+
+(require 'ert)
+
+;; Stub dependencies before loading the module
+(defvar cj/custom-keymap (make-sparse-keymap)
+  "Stub keymap for testing.")
+
+(require 'video-audio-recording)
+
+;;; Normal Cases
