Enable large address space optimization on windows.
Starting with Win 8.1/Server 2012 windows no longer preallocates
page tables for reserverd memory eagerly, which prevented us from
using this approach in the past.
We also try to allocate the heap high in the memory space.
Hopefully this makes it easier to allocate things in the low
4GB of memory that need to be there. Like jump islands for the
linker.
