      Beginning with Windows 8, there is a new system service that tells you if an address is in physical RAM. So we just need to implement blockCheckSupported for Windows 8+, using the same technique that we will soon be using for Slim Reader Writer Locks, where we dynamically detect at run-time if the function is available.
