REQ: show more details in windows builds #743

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Under Windows, when you right click on the .exec file, select Properties and then Details tab, then most of the fields are empty. It would be nice if they were populated on each build.

Describe the solution you'd like Not sure if this requires only passing extra vars to cmake or extra changes or code generation in headers.

Describe alternatives you've considered None.

Additional context https://builds.quakeworld.nu/ezquake/snapshots/x64/rls-all/ shows a lot of builds, when you download exe and rename it to ezquake.exe then the only way to check version is via running exe and type version to get that details.

Impact on server or mods Rather not.

This requires writing a .rc file (example) and telling the compiler to use it via CMake.

A .rc file is used for adding the icon. A brave soul might convince msbuild to generate that file, or embed fields in some other way before a cmake build has been introduced.
