Is there a way, just using plain IL and ilasm, to set file properties, such
as Copyright, Description, etc? I see al.exe allows these, but it doesn't
produce a single standalone assembly (it requires the .netmodule to run).

File properties are specified in a version info resource in a Win32
resource file (.res). You can tell Ilasm to include one with the
/resource option.
