File description on Firebird executables should be specific
-----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CORE-5691
                 URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-5691
             Project: Firebird Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Engine, GBAK, GFIX, GPRE, GSEC, GSTAT, Guardian, ISQL, 
LOCK_PRINT, NBACKUP, QLI, SVCMGR, TRACEMGR
            Reporter: Mark Rotteveel


Currently all Firebird executables on Windows have the "File description" 
property set to "Firebird SQL Server" (see properties, details on any 
executable). These should be made specific to the executable.

While testing something I got a "Firebird SQL Server has stopped working", 
while it was actually ISQL that crashed, and not the server.

In comparison, PostgreSQL has a specific description for a lot of utilities, 
and otherwise defaults to "PostgreSQL utility", only postgres.exe has 
"PostgreSQL Server" as file description.

Proposal:

fbguard.exe : "fbguard.exe - Firebird Guardian"
fbsvcmgr.exe : "fbsvcmgr.exe - Firebird Service Manager"
fbtracemgr.exe : "fbtracemr.exe - Firebird Trace Manager"
fb_lock_print.exe : "fb_lock_print.exe - Firebird utility"
firebird.exe : "Firebird SQL Server" (as is)
gbak.exe: "gbak.exe - Firebird backup"
gfix.exe: "gfix.exe - Firebird utility"
gpre.exe: "gpre.exe - Firebird preprocessor"
gsplit.exe: "gsplit.exe - Firebird utility"
gstat.exe: "gstat.exe - Firebird utility"
instclient.exe: "instclient.exe - Firebird client installer"
instreg.exe: "instreg.exe - Firebird registry installer"
instsvc.exe: "instsvc.exe - Firebird service utility"
isql.exe: "isql.exe - Firebird CLI"
nbackup.exe: "nbackup.exe - Firebird NBackup"
qli.exe: "qli.exe - Firebird utility"
