title: Display project version in ASP.NET Core 1.0.0 web application
body: <p>None of what used to work in RC.x helps anymore.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried these:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>PlatformServices.Default.Application.ApplicationVersion;</p></li>
  <li><p>typeof(Controller).GetTypeInfo().Assembly.GetCustomAttribute&lt;AssemblyFileVersionAttribute&gt;().Version;</p></li>
  <li>Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().GetName().Version.ToString();</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>They all return 1.0.0.0 instead of 1.0.0-9 which should be after execution of the <code>dotnet publish --version-suffix 9</code> having this in <code>project.json: "version": "1.0.0-*"</code></p>
  
  <p>Basically they give me "File version" from the attached picture instead of "Product version" which <code>dotnet publish</code> actually seems to change.</p>
