Fix rustc bug on windows by symlinking all transitive deps into a linked directory. This only affects windows because
rustc
uses an environment variable to track all the paths passed as-Ldependency=
on that platform and it silently overflows causing "no such crate" errors when compiling rust projects with large transitive dependency trees.
