Mark Mentovai 79425e4d97 win: Free an old buffer before attempting to allocate a resized one ...

When GetProcessInformation() obtains SystemProcessInformation, it
resizes its buffer as directed by NtQuerySystemInformation(). Nothing of
value resides in the old buffer if a resize is attempted, so it can be
freed before attempting to allocate a resized one.

This may help crashes like go/crash/f385e94c80000000, which experience
out-of-memory while attempting to allocate a resized buffer. It also may
not help, because the required buffer size may just be too large to fit
in memory. See https://crashpad.chromium.org/bug/143#c19.
