Steps to reproduce

I have some markdown files which I create in my ./docs/en-US folder using New-MarkdownCommandHelp.

When I run New-MarkdownCommandHelp it creates another parent folder with the module name inside like ./docs/en-US/<ModuleName>

Same happens with Export-MamlCommandHelp.

Workaround is to flatten the directory structure, but this is extra work. Is there another parameter to avoid this? I don't think any command should be creating parent folders and leave that to the user to decide.

Expected behavior

To output directly into the directory, I specify and create no extra parent folders.

Actual behavior

Creates parent directory with module name.
