Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 * It looks like files inside `wp-admin` are symlinked, but not the files
 in subfolders, e.g. `wp-admin/includes`, which are copied instead. Same
 for `wp-includes`, e.g. `wp-includes/customize` or `wp-includes/rest-api`.
 * The error in `build:dev` says: "Failed to delete symlinks". Seems like a
 copy/paste from `clean-all`, should probably be "Failed to create
 symlinks".
