Compare the shared signature before and after the RSS call.

If another Windows test has set ctypes.windll.kernel32.GetCurrentProcess.restype, this assertion fails even when _get_rss_mb leaves the signature unchanged. Capture restype before the call and assert that it has the same value afterward. ctypes.windll caches its library objects and function attributes. (docs.python.org)

As per coding guidelines, “Keep tests deterministic, fast, and scoped to changed behavior.”

21 - 22:
Update the test for InitServiceMemoryBasicMixin._get_rss_mb to capture
GetCurrentProcess.restype before the call and assert the same value afterward,
rather than assuming it is ctypes.c_int.
