If file path doesn't exist, :NERDTreeFind its parent directory instead. (#1043)

* If file path doesn't exist, :NERDTreeFind its parent directory instead.

This happens in the following scenario:
```
:edit path/new_file
:NERDTreeFind
```
Instead of an error message about an **invalid path**, this change will
now find the parent directory instead. It will not work if the new file
is **path/new_folder/new_file**, and that's OK because even vim itself
cannot handle both the new folder and the new file; `:w` won't create
the new folder.

* Update version number in change log.

* Change version change from PATCH to MINOR.
