[Feature]: Add "Details" metadata to the nvm.exe #1132

Description of the new feature / enhancement

My company uses BeyondTrust Privileged Access Management for controlling which executables are allowed to run. They have an allowlist that looks at metadata associated with an executable, such as the publisher name, product name, product version, etc.

Unfortunately, nvm.exe has no properties for these fields:

If it's possible to add these, that would be much appreciated

Scenario when this would be used?

PAM-regulated installations

This is already on our to-do list, but it's very low priority. For organizations using NVM4W for work, I recommend looking at Runtime. We're pretty close to a beta release.
