Is your feature request related to a problem?

Whenever I want to release a new version of an extension, I have several places where I need to remember to update the version number. I'd prefer to only have to update the version number once.

Describe the solution you'd like

Update the version number on the DNN manifest file, like shown below.

<package name="MyCompany.ModuleName" type="Module" version="01.00.00">  

When building in release mode, the version number gets updated automatically in the following places:

• Primary manifest > Uninstall SQL data provider
• Primary manifest > DLL
• Symbols Manifest > <package>
• Symbols Manifest > <dependency type="managedPackage />
• Project Properties

Describe alternatives you've considered

Just re-purpose the MSBuild scripts we're already using.
