Summary:                    Incorrect settings for Embarcadero compiler
Description: 
The configuration file used for Embarcadero compiler -
Windows-Embarcadero.cmake, at Modules/Platform folder - has incorrect settings.
The variable 'CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT' is set as "${_tM} -lS:10000000
-lSc:10000000 ", overriding the default configuration for stack and heap
allocation/commit.

Steps to Reproduce: 
The issue can be reproduced using a binary that allocates a lot of memory in a
short time span, running on a system with memory pagination disabled. The memory
commit size will increase and the system will hang or become unstable.

Additional Information: 
The ideal configuration to be passed to the linker would be:

set (CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT "${_tM} -lS:1048576 -lSc:4098 -lH:1048576
-lHc:8192")

It will force the linker to use the default settings for stack and heap memory
allocation/usage.
