Problem description

While other packages' installation works, the luacheck package fails due to symbolic linking of a non-existent file at bin\luacheck.bat. When I ran MasonInstall --debug luacheck, I saw that a file luacheck is located in the bin directory which seems like the file Mason was looking for based on its content. The bat file was at C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Local\nvim-data\mason\packages\luacheck\bin.

Expected behavior

Location of the batch file without the '.bat' extension for successful symbolic linking to complete the luacheck installation.

Affected packages

Luacheck

Furthermore. took a look at the luacheck repo and the file exists at https://github.com/mpeterv/luacheck/blob/master/bin/luacheck.bat.

In the directory 'bin' at the repo is another file named luacheck.lua but this is not being pulled in as part of the mason's 'luacheck' package. Only a luacheck file which contains the content of https://github.com/mpeterv/luacheck/blob/master/bin/luacheck.lua
