Add version resources to Azure SDK binaries when building on Windows (WAS: Allow specifying binary version for Windows builds)

[avivanoff]

Original request:

When building on Windows it would be nice to have the ability to specify version info.

When an Azure SDK package is built as a shared binary (DLL) on Windows, add a version resource which reflects the version of the package.

Could you explain "it would be nice to have the ability to specify version info" a bit more? Do you mean the application manifest? The SDK version preprocessor definitions? Something else? What is a "binary version" in this context?

The SDK source code is intentionally windows version agnostic (as much as is feasible).

Conditionally include rc file when targeting Windows.

Ah - you want to add a resource file when building the SDK as a shared library (dll).

That makes a certain amount of sense. If you don't mind, let me edit the text to reflect what I believe is your request.

Yes, thank you.

@LarryOsterman, any updates? Seems like should be easy enough change.
