heat dir is intended to create a relocatable component group, but not the
entire authoring. You need to tell it the identifier of the directory under
which the root of the component group will be installed (or the identifier of
the root directory if you specify suppressing the root directory) using the -dr
argument. You can then add your shortcuts, etc to the produced WXS.
