Log Message:
-----------
[GH #888] Add a cyg-desparse post-linker step
The cygwin linker up until 1.17.18 creates all its exes and shared libs
as sparse files, which reduces startup time of executables by a large percentage
(8-10x slower) because the code cannot be mmap'ed and not cached, it must be
read
byte by byte. Again and again.
