People were confused on a few details around fixing windows space names, including:
1. setshortname can report confusing error message when the directory is in use
2. Many directories can have names set but only Microsoft Visual Studio and Windows Kits need them

Also adds some notes about `jdk` being the exploded image while `images/jdk` is the actual image.
