[release-branch.go1.17] syscall: do not use handle lists on windows when NoInheritHandles is true

If NoInheritHandles is passed, then we shouldn't attempt to do anything
with handle lists. Otherwise CreateProcess fails with invalid param,
because it's being told both to not inherit handles and to inherit
certain handles.

This commit fixes that by using the same logic for handle lists as it
does for enabling or disabling handle inheritance. It also adds a test
to make sure this doesn't regress again.

Updates #48040
Fixes #48075
