Use GlobalMemoryStatusEx to get total physical memory on Windows node

**What this PR does / why we need it**:
This PR fixes issue #57110 due to failure in getting total physical memory on some Windows VM such as in VMWare Fusion or Virtualbox. This change uses GlobalMemoryStatusEx instead of GetPhysicallyInstalledSystemMemory to retrieve total physical memory on Windows node. The amount obtained this way is also closer in parity with reading MemTotal from /proc/meminfo on Linux node.
(thanks to @martinivanov and @marono for the help)
