[PATCH v2 1/7] path: drop useless `safe_create_leading_directories_1()`

From

Message-ID
<20260928-pks-create-repository-stateless-v2-1-a03612f703fa@pks.im>
In-Reply-To
<20260928-pks-create-repository-stateless-v2-0-a03612f703fa@pks.im>

The function `safe_create_leading_directories_1()` is being called by both `safe_create_leading_directories()` and its `_no_share()` variant. It is ultimately the exact same as the former of these functions though and is thus quite useless.

Drop the function and inline it into its callsites directly.
