Nowhere. It's irrelevant. The paths to files are *not* stable and should not be
relied on. (The old ones in skins/common/ were an exception.)

So far I've been able to find all of the files I removed on Wikimedia Commons
(https://commons.wikimedia.org/), under the same filenames too.

If there is anything that's used by on-wiki scripts and isn't there, it should
be uploaded there (and I will upload it if I run into anything).

MediaWiki supports Windows hosts too, which don't support UNIX-style symbolic
links, so we can't do that in the main repository. Perhaps you could convince
ops to keep the old URLs valid in some way, but I'm not going to try convincing
anyone it's a good idea :)
