Description
### Describe the bug
While it doesn't effect managed code if you are using any native allocator from a 3rd party lib (e.g. use RocksDB for example); then the allocator will degrade terribly over time and become a performance bottleneck.
Windows 10, version 2004 (build 19041) and later support a new allocator that doesn't suffer from this issues https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/sbscs/application-manifests#heaptype
However it needs to be specified in the `app.manifest` which by default .NET isn't doing.
This can be manually overwritten eg. https://github.com/NethermindEth/nethermind/pull/7418 but should be on this fast path by default.
### To Reproduce
Build a .NET exe on Windows this field is not included in the manifest
