When we add local plugin as
```
cordova plugin add /path/to/local_plugin/
```
in windows environment, a `symlink` is created.

I feel that a `junction` should be used as by `npm` command. 

I checked this by using `cordova-cli` 8.1.x in github with 
`[email protected]` in npm.

The result is following. (Here I add cordova-plugin-camera downloaded to my 
local PC)

```
> dir node_modules
2018/09/20  18:36    <DIR>          .
2018/09/20  18:36    <DIR>          ..
2018/09/20  18:36    <JUNCTION>     cordova-plugin-camera 
[C:\Users\knaito\Documents\work\cordova\plugins\cordova-plugin-camera]
```
The node_module is `junction` pointing to the original directory. (This is ok)

```
> dir plugins
2018/09/20  18:36    <DIR>          .
2018/09/20  18:36    <DIR>          ..
2018/09/20  18:36    <SYMLINK>      cordova-plugin-camera 
[C:\Users\knaito\Documents\work\cordova\plugins\cordova-plugin-camera\]
2018/09/20  18:36               241 fetch.json
```
The plugin is `symlink` pointing to the original directory. (Is this ok?)
