Subject: [PATCH] use junctions for base-apps icon paths instead of duplicate
 files

Create Windows junctions at root pointing to src/main/assets/:
  mklink /J icons src\main\assets\icons
  mklink /J scripts src\main\assets\scripts
  mklink /J ui src\main\assets\ui

This avoids duplicating files while allowing base-apps manifest
paths like ../../icons/ to resolve correctly.
