Yeah, that's roughly what needs to happen; at the end of tree_insert,
you'd want to set last_segment(p)->tree to the newly created node and
than call format_path(p) .. I think though that the
aug_set("/augeas/tree/last_created", format_path(p)) should be called
from aug_insert, not tree_insert, since you don't want that node to
change when tree_insert is used internally.
