Those directories can't be created at package installation time
since /var/run gets cleared on boot. They could certainly be created
at boot time either through a startup script or whatever other
mechanism your init supports (such as systemd-tmpfiles).
The problem with something like /var/run/user/$UID/sudo is that the
parent directory is owned by a non-root user and so can't really
be trusted.
This seems like a packaging issue more than anything else.
