Thanks.  I installed this (with minor changes), but please in the
future make sure your commit log messages follow our conventions (as
described in CONTRIBUTE), because this patch was rejected by our Git
commit hooks, and I had to apply it "by hand".

The CreateSymbolicLink Win32API has a flag that allows creating sym-links
without admin privileges SYMBOLIC_LINK_FLAG_ALLOW_UNPRIVILEGED_CREATE.
This patch added that support for w32 Emacs.
