Description
When specifying a custom artifactDirectory in the relay compiler config, the compiler requires this directory to exist. Otherwise you get:
[ERROR] Config `/home/.../frontend/relay.config.js` is invalid:
- The `artifactDirectory` does not exist at `/home/.../frontend/src/query-types`.
This is particularly annoying when using git, as you cannot check empty folders into git. The typical ".gitkeep file in folder" trick does not work well, because the relay-compiler deletes all files from the artifact directory on each compile, always leading to a dirty working directory.
I think the best is to use the same behavior as for the default __generated__ folder: create it, if it doesn't exist.
This problem only occurred after upgrading to v13 (i.e. the compiler written in Rust).
