LICENSE file clash with license directory on Windows

[vardlokkur]

          @siordache I have similar problem on windows, getting error:

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':prepareMergedJarsDir'.
> Failed to copy C:\.........\build\jlinkbase\tmpjars\license\LICENSE to C:\................\build\jlinkbase\mergedjars\license\LICENSE due to C:\...............\build\jlinkbase\mergedjars\license\LICENSE

I tried: jarExclude("**/license/**", "**/LICENSE*") option for jlink task but it doesn't help at all :( There is a file named LICENSE in target directory (mergedjars), and when your plugin tries to copy directory with license name it clashes with the existing file.

The same problem can be observed on OSX with case-insensitive file system (default one)

@vardlokkur can you provde a minimal example project (maybe a hello world on your GH) that reproduces the problem?

@vardlokkur Hi, just a reminder that I need a minimal example project that reproduces this issue and information on what system the problem occurs on with that project. Otherwise I will close this issue.
