This PR enables CPU affinity support for Virtual Client process on windows, by setting affinity via Process.ProcessorAffinity API.
Why Different Approaches for Windows vs. Linux?
-On Linux, we use numactl to wrap the process execution command.
-Windows doesn't have a built-in numactl equivalent, the Process.ProcessorAffinity property is the standard .NET approach which leverages the existing process management infrastructure.
process.Start();
process.ProcessorAffinity = affinityMask;
Limitations for Windows:
Set thread group + CPU mask > Create thread in a group > Query group topology > Multi‑group thread affinity
