Ng build does not export src/favicon to dist/ folder.

[vinagreti]

1. OS?
   Ubuntu 16.04 x64
2. Versions.
   angular-cli: 1.0.0-beta.14
   node: 4.2.6
   os: linux x64
3. Repro steps.
   Just run ng build and look inside dist/ folder to check if favicon.ico was exported.
4. The log given by the failure. Normally this include a stack trace and some
   more information.
   Failed to load favicon.ico. The file cannot be found on the server.
5. Mention any other details that might be useful.
   I had to move my favicon to assets/img/favicon.ico and changed the index.html to point to taht place. Is it the correct configuration or the favicon should be placed inside src/ folder?

The same occurs for .htaccess file and any other file that we would like to insert in the root of the build folder.

Same to .htaccess file.

No assets either (although that's a topic of another issue).

It's not clear (to me anyway) if we should now copy these using a separate build script?

Replicates for favicon (have not tested with other assets yet) on Windows 10 with
angular-cli: 1.0.0-beta.14
node: 6.5.0
os: win32 x64
