bug#8268: Windows Emacs Console persists while running running emacs.exe.

[Nicholas "Indy" Ray]

Again, runemacs.exe doesn't interact properly with the task bar.
runemacs.exe and emacs.exe act as separate icons on the task bar. If
runemacs.exe is pinned, then while emacs.exe is running it's you get
two taskbar icons dedicated to emacs.

Thanks,
Indy
