deps/winpty directory empty in releases

[darrenkenny]

Issue# 113 suggested that the deps/winpty directory should be including the winpty build data, but the latest releases appear to have nothing in that directory.

I'm seeing this when I attempt to install several terminal extensions (term,termy,term3) in Atom where it is reporting the error:

I've seen this with Atom 1.8.0 and 1.9.0beta0...

Any chance that you could fix this issue?
