windows: treat proc thread attribute lists as unsafe.Pointers

It turns out that the proc thread update function doesn't actually
allocate new memory for its arguments and instead just copies the
pointer values into the preallocated memory. Since we were allocating
that memory as []byte, the garbage collector didn't scan it for pointers
to Go allocations and freed them. We _could_ fix this by requiring that
all users of this use runtime.KeepAlive for everything they pass to the
update function, but that seems harder than necessary. Instead, we can
just do the allocation as []unsafe.Pointer, which means the GC can
operate as intended and not free these from beneath our feet. In order
to ensure this remains true, we also add a test for this.

Updates golang/go#44662.
