/**
 * Build a Windows-only embedded Neutralino executable.
 *
 * `neu build --embed-resources` embeds every platform binary it finds in bin/.
 * With this app's offline libraries, embedding all platforms can exhaust Node's
 * heap before the Windows binary is reached, leaving a stale Windows EXE in
 * dist/. Temporarily hiding non-Windows binaries makes the CLI embed only the
 * target users actually run on Windows.
