Feature request: Startmenu and Desktop shortcuts #38

Description

@forman

I'm trying to use constructor to bundle and distribute my Python application.

On Windows, it seems that constructor unconditionally installs menu items found as JSON files in the Menu folder of the Miniconda3 root installation. Could you please make this an optional behaviour?

On the other hand it would be great if constructor users could provide their own JSON files which would be turned into Windows Startmenu and Desktop shortcuts, e.g. for launching their applications with a preconfigured Python environment.

The same applies of course to OS X Dock entries and Ubuntu Desktop shortcuts. However, from looking at the code it seems easy to enable this for Windows by conditionally enhancing the NSIS script.

Thanks
