Fix #16407: Address 32-bit Chrome out-of-memory errors in Python bindings

This commit addresses out-of-memory errors that occur when using 32-bit Chrome with large extensions (like OKX wallet) on Windows, as reported in issue #16407.

Root Cause:
32-bit Chrome has a per-tab memory limit of approximately 1GB. When extensions consume significant memory, opening new tabs can exceed this limit, causing out-of-memory errors and connection timeouts between Selenium and ChromeDriver.

Implemented Solution:
1. Added garbage collection triggers at critical points:
   - After closing windows/tabs (close method)
   - Before opening new windows on 32-bit systems (switch_to_new_window method)
   - After quitting the driver (quit method)

2. Enhanced session cleanup in quit method:
   - Iteratively closes all window handles before final quit
   - Prevents orphaned windows from holding memory
   - Includes exception handling to ensure cleanup completes

3. Added platform detection and warning:
   - Detects 32-bit Chrome on Windows during initialization
   - Logs warning about 1GB per-tab memory limitation
   - Advises upgrading to 64-bit Chrome
   - Includes documentation in class docstring

Technical Details:
- Imports gc, logging, and platform modules
- Overrides quit, close, and switch_to_new_window methods
- Maintains backward compatibility with existing code
- Exception handling ensures robustness

This implementation helps prevent the timeout issues described in the bug report by proactively managing memory and providing clear warnings to users about platform limitations.
