  fix issue3120 - don't truncate handles on 64-bit Windows.

  This is still messy, realistically PC/_subprocess.c should never cast pointers
  to python numbers and back at all.

  I don't have a 64-bit windows build environment because microsoft apparently
  thinks that should cost money.  Time to watch the buildbots.  It builds and
  passes tests on 32-bit windows.
