Support for linked files

[robertbell]

As part of the precompilation process, the OctoPack.Precompile.targets file has a NormalizedFiles step which takes all of the collected files and makes the paths relative to the project.

This works great until one of your included files is a linked file.

The script to perform the conversion is:

"@(CollectedFiles->'%(FullPath)'->Substring($(ProjectDir.Length)))

This assumes that the collected file resides in the project directory, and would work for the following include:

<Content Include="Locale\Web.config" />

but would not work for:

<Content Include="..\Web.Shared\Content\bootstrap-custom\css\bootstrap-theme.min.css">
   <Link>Content\bootstrap-custom\css\bootstrap-theme.min.css</Link>
</Content>

as the length of the path containing directory is different to ProjectDir.Length.

An example compiler error:

C:\[Redacted Path]\packages\OctoPack.Precompile.2.0.1\build\OctoPack.Precompile.targets(51,5): error MSB3030: Could not copy the file "nt\bootstrap-custom\css\bootstrap-theme.min.css" because it was not found. [[Redacted Path]]

Please could you advise if you're aware for a workaround to this? I'd love to use your library.

Being late is a strong understatement here, but I made it work, or at least for the test case I implemented. I'm gonna close the issue.
