try to create rundir if missing

Runtime dir changed from /run to /run/pppd in commit 66a8c74 ("Let ./configure control the paths for pppd") and is likely to not exist on some distros, in which case the pppdb will not be created. See: ppp-project#419 (lock directory moved in ppp-2.5.0) Signed-off-by: Dominique Martinet <[email protected]>
