Description
When building for release on Windows, the path to the theme css file is invalid.
The forwards slashes "/" becomes backslash "" and Webpack chooses to url encode those before inserting into index.html.
For a theme named "brandsync" the wrong import then becomes:
<link href="/styles/brandsync%5C0.0.1%5Cweb%5Cbrandsync.18849624e209bb95383d.css" rel="stylesheet">
It should have been:
<link href="/styles/brandsync/0.0.1/web/brandsync.18849624e209bb95383d.css" rel="stylesheet">
Fable's response as to where in the CLI you'll have to make the fix
Tested with CLI 21 and these packages

Research direction
Start in the CLI's release-build path that generates the theme CSS link, using the Windows reproduction and the attached Fable guidance to locate the path handling. Verify the generated index.html for a theme such as brandsync, and consider the issue complete when its URL uses forward-slash separators rather than encoded backslashes.
