[release-branch.go1.21] internal/syscall/windows: fix the signature of SetFileInformationByHandle

Also fix its call site in internal/poll to pass the length of the
actual buffer instead of an unrelated variable, and update the
definition of FILE_BASIC_INFO to match the documented field types
and add padding that is empirically needed on the 386 architecture.

Passing a pointer to a Go-allocated buffer as type uintptr violates
the unsafe.Pointer conversion rules, which allow such a conversion
only in the call expression itself for a call to syscall.Syscall or
equivalent. That can allow the buffer to be corrupted arbitrarily if
the Go runtime happens to garbage-collect it while the call to
SetFileInformationByHandle is in progress.

The Microsoft documentation for SetFileInformationByHandle specifies
its third argument type as LPVOID, which corresponds to Go's
unsafe.Pointer, not uintptr.

Fixes #65882.
Updates #58933.
