#1654 ShellExtension version resource strings not good
2.7.7.3 experimental.
While inspecting my work computer with Sysinternal's Autoruns-tool, I noticed ShellExtension's description texts are not quite correct.
Description: ShellExtension Module
Publisher: missing
These strings are good to be correct so people using tools like Autoruns or otherwise interested about their system know which component it is.
I suggest changing these to:
Description: WinMerge Shell Integration component
Publisher: www.winmerge.org
Hmm. It actually appears Autoruns reads this information from dll version resource. And indeed we haven't updated that properly...

Updating summary to describe the issue better.
And assigning to me - this is a must-fix.
