Support building development lantern on Windows

[oxtoacart]

The packaging stuff won't work yet, but at least I can build the lantern target and run Lantern.

[oxtoacart]

The syso is now back in git so I don't need to run this on Windows, which is good because it doesn't run.

Gonna take this one, looks like we have a conflict @oxtoacart, could you rebase and push again?

[oxtoacart]

@xiam Merged

[oxtoacart]

@xiam I mean, I reverse merged to resolve the conflict :)

[xiam]

Hey @oxtoacart, looks good, just made a few changes. What are the name changes required for? I mean, moving ui to the root.

@xiam By "name changes" do you mean all the moved files in lantern-ui? With lantern-ui in the original location, the directory structure is too deep for Windows which has a maximum path length of 260.

[xiam]

Yeah, that's it. Hmm, not sure if that justifies changing the path for the
whole project. Isn't it possible to use soft links or equivalent? I'll take
a look too trying to find another solution.

@xiam I only moved lantern-ui. It's actually kind of strange to have it in the GOPATH in the first place, and I used git mv to move it, so it shouldn't cause any merge issues.

[myleshorton]

Yeah I agree @oxtoacart it's a little weird to have lantern-ui in the GOPATH.

[xiam]

Ok then @myleshorton & @oxtoacart, I think that having our source code on src makes more sense, but if you both agree let's leave it like that. Otherwise the build works for me.

[oxtoacart]

@xiam thanks for the review and improving the Makefile!

[myleshorton]

Nice @xiam!!
