Could not create directory "mermaid-images"

I am assuming this is an issue with having a hyphenated directory name.

Could not create directory "mermaid-images"

Replace os.mkdir(imagedir) with os.makedirs(imagedir, exist_ok=True) in pandocfilters.py

[AlexAltea]

This is fixed in the latest version of pandocfilters.

@timofurrer This issue can be closed now.
