Some ways seem to be documented here:

The steps involving rc.exe and mt.exe should be translatable to
postbuild/prebuild steps in MD on Windows. I don't think MD supports
the <Win32Resource> element (feel free to file a bug) but you can
certainly pass /win32res to the .NET C# compiler from MD by adding it
to "additional compiler argument, and it *might* work with the Mono C#
compiler.
