kodi: copy web assets instead of symlinking

Kodi refuses to follow symlinks that lead outside of a small whitelist
of allowed directories. See
[`CFileUtils::CheckFileAccessAllowed`](https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/4ac445c4a9f3080895bfcc34e7115e2de5b66d22/xbmc/utils/FileUtils.cpp#L252)
for the relevant code.

This feels like a pretty brittle workaround, but I can't think of a
better solution, so I'm going to say that this fixes
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/145116.
