Cannot delete file named con.config from Kudu API.

[Gaurav Kumar]

A file named con.config was created under D:\home\site\wwwroot during deployment (not sure how). We were getting HTTP 404 when trying to delete it from Kudu the kudu console via UI:

We were able to delete it via cmd in Kudu.

However, we also noticed that the same issue happens if we create a file named con.config manually from kudu. (It works well for other files.)

Steps to reproduce:

• Go to Kudu console of a Windows WebApp
• Create a file named con.config under D:\home\site\wwwroot
• Try to delete via kudu console UI (it fails)
• Try to delete from cmd (it works)
