Embed aria2 version in .exe properties tab

Hi,

is it possible to set the aria2 version in the Windows exe property tab ?

We have an app that embeds the aria2.exe process as a sidecar and we need to know BEFORE starting the app, it's version, to know if we need to stop the aria2 process & update it or not. I know there's a --version argument that prints out the version, but as I said, we'd need to know the version without starting the exe.

I know there's tons of opened issues, just hoping that this could be a "simple" change maybe?
