Description

Hello would you be able to add a ENV variable to master so i can allocate memory from a certain NUMANODE?
E.G on a 2 Node system with 0 being base NUMANode :
MIMALLOC_ALLOCATE_NODE=1
or to allocate from the base node:
MIMALLOC_ALLOCATE_NODE=0

Great work by the way!
Thank you :)

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests. Start by locating mimalloc's environment-variable handling and Windows NUMA allocation entry points, then verify how a selected NUMA node should affect allocations; done means the requested variable supports both node 0 and another specified node on Windows, with coverage for the behavior.
