fix(builtin): fix runfiles linking issue on Windows

Fix 1 of 2 for linker issue on Windows when all build actions are cached #1781. This fixes incorrectly symlinks but it does not actually address the underlying issue of programs (tests) running outside of the sandbox and directly out of the execroot on Windows (either out of execroot sources or execroot bazel-out).

If all build actions are cached then the linker only runs for the test that is executed. If there are no third-part npm deps then it makes a node_modules folder in the runfiles for that test and puts its symlinks in there. The problem is that when the test runs, the .js spec is in execroot bazel-out and it doesn't see the node_modules created in the runfiles folder. Since no build actions have run that may have created the symlinks needed for the test in the execroot node_modules, the symlinks that it needs do not exist.

The 2nd fix (still coming) seems to be to always symlink into the execroot which is below the runfiles folder. Some mental gymnastics needed to figure out if this is correct when in the sandbox as well and if there are third-party deps or not. I'll investigate.
