Please add a comment why we use IntPtr for strings - this help us avoid problems in future.

PR Summary
#7572
The current code mixes Ansi version of GetStartupInfoA with Unicode marshalling. This leads to a heap corruption that manifests in a crash a few lines down.
This commit simplifies the interop struct, using IntPtr instead of string since we have no usage for the strings. With that change, all fields are blitable, making the marshaller both simpler and faster.
GetStartupInfoA is documented to throw and exception, not set last error, So I changed to
SetLastError = false.GetStartupInfoW does not fail, indicated by the void return type.
I also made the reserved fields private, and all fields readonly.
