Subject: [LIBREPORT PATCH] dump_dir: allow creating of a new dir w/o chowning
 it

Split dd_create() in to dd_create_skeleton() creating the directory and
intializing struct dd* and dd_reset_ownership() updating UID and GUI to
the deemed values.

We need this because we have to avoid situations where root is using a
directory owned by a regular user.
