Symlink Emulation

Since v8.11, Mojolicious installation fails due to how symlinks are emulated in msys2. This can be avoided by enabling winsymlinks either by environment variable (example below) or enabling the setting in msys2.ini.

export MSYS=winsymlinks

This should be enough in Windows 10 with Developer Mode enabled, but may require escalated privileges in previous versions of Windows or Windows 10 without Developer Mode.
