[release/6.0] Enforce scatter/gather file I/O Windows API requirement…

…s et. al. (#58423)

* Move checking and pinning Windows vectored I/O buffers to a dedicated method.

* Refactor the scatter/gather APIs to use the common checking method.

And use pinned GCHandles and IntPtrs instead of MemoryHandles when passing the segment array to the bottom-most method.

* Shorten the name of the buffer-checking method.

* Directly get the pinned array's address instead of calling GCHandle.AddrOfPinnedObject.

* Refactor the error handling logic in TryPrepareScatterGatherBuffers.

* Allocate the segment array from native memory and at TryPrepareScatterGatherBuffers.

* Cache the page size on a static readonly field and add a couple of TODOs.

* Make the memory handlers readonly structs.

* Add a test.

* Reorder some methods with PR feedback taken into consideration.

* Stop special-casing scatter/gather operations with zero or one buffer.

* Factor the cleaning-up of the segment buffers into a separate method.

* Follow up on Scatter/Gather API changes (#58447)

* Allocate an array of memory handles only if needed.

* Remove an unnecessary variable in the multiple-syscall write gather.

* Actually verify the content read by the read scatter operation.

* Delay allocating native memory.

* Verify that the whole file was read in the scatter/gather test.

* Test the case when the scatter/gather buffers are acceptable by the Windows API.

* Avoid null pointer dereferences when passing an empty segment array.

* Test performing scatter/gather I/O with an empty segment array.
