We had a stub installer check for a 64-bit minimum memory requirement before. We should resurrect that.

For now the minimum can just be 2 GB, which covers 99% of Win64 OS users (because 2 GB is Microsoft's minimum memory requirement for Win64 OS itself). If we need to add a 4 GB requirement later, it will be easier to change "2" to "4" than to uplift all the stub installer code to check memory.
For now, we don't need a minimum memory check in the 64-bit full installer. If a user went out of their way to download the 64-bit full installer, we should probably give it to them.
