Remove Windows-specific code for static memory bounds

[alexcrichton]

Added in c4e1022 I think the original
reason (which I'm not entirely knowledgeable of) may no longer be
applicable? In any case this is a significant difference on Windows from
other platforms because it makes loads/stores of wasm code have manual
checks instead of relying on the guard page, causing runtime and
compile-time slowdowns on Windows-only.

I originally rediscovered this when investigating #2318 and saw that
both the compile time of the module in question and trap information
tables were much larger than they were on Linux. Removing this
Windows-specific configuration fixed the discrepancies and afterwards
Linux and Windows were basically the same.

cc @sunfishcode and @peterhuene, I'm not sure whether this is still needed any more, but I'm curious if y'all know more!

Oh huh, so I wasn't imagining the slowdown! Thanks for fixing it.

I don't know the background to the original change as it was unfortunately before my time.

As it is referencing the page file, all I can think of is that the Windows implementation was originally allocating the memory committed instead of reserved?

I think that was the case given this old code.

Let's let @sunfishcode weigh-in before merging this as he originally added this restriction.

Looks good to me! We have much better Windows support and testing now than we did at that time, so now if we ever run out of resources, we're in a much better position now to find it and understand what's happening.
