[Kde-bindings] [Qyoto] modifying assembly after building with assemblygen

At the end of main.cs in assemblygen we are using Mono.Cecil to modify
the assembly we just created.
> AssemblyDefinition assemblyDefinition = AssemblyDefinition.ReadAssembly(cr.PathToAssembly);

> assemblyDefinition.Write(cr.PathToAssembly);
This causes some undesirable results.
1) It invalidates the signature since we are modifying the assembly
after it has been signed. I think the patch I made to sign the
assemblies in mono was actually unnecessary and that this is the cause
of the assemblies not being properly signed.
2) I makes the debug information inaccessible even if you add the /debug
flag to the compile options. At least this is a problem with Visual
Studio - I haven't tested it with monodevelop. So, it is not possible to
do step debugging with the assemblies created this way.
Is there another way we can accomplish the same thing without actually
modifying the assembly here? Or at least make it optional?
