Description

We collect binary metadata in DLLs.

See https://github.com/nexB/scancode-toolkit/blob/4f49985c26b6b8f951f116dfa3fe39ce27bd4ce8/src/packagedcode/win_pe.py#L110

But see this publication:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/developer/dotnet/framework/general/assembly-version-assembly-file-version

We may also wrongly use "Assembly Version" instead of "AssemblyVersion"
