Hooking `GiveNamedItemFunc` (`HookMode.Post`) throws exception on Windows

[Ian Lucas]

Consider the sample plugin below.

using CounterStrikeSharp.API.Core;
using CounterStrikeSharp.API.Modules.Memory;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;

namespace PlaygroundPlugin;

public class PlaygroundPlugin : BasePlugin
{
    public override string ModuleName => "Hello World Plugin";

    public override string ModuleVersion => "0.0.1";

    public override void Load(bool hotReload)
    {
        VirtualFunctions.GiveNamedItemFunc.Hook(hook =>
        {
            var itemServices = hook.GetParam<CCSPlayer_ItemServices>(0);
            var className = hook.GetParam<string>(1);
            var weapon = hook.GetReturn<CBasePlayerWeapon>();
            var pawn = itemServices.Pawn.Value;
            var playerName = "<unknown>";

            if (pawn.IsValid && pawn.Controller.IsValid && pawn.Controller.Value != null)
            {
                var player = new CCSPlayerController(pawn.Controller.Value.Handle);
                playerName = player.PlayerName;
            }

            Logger.LogInformation($"GiveNamedItem '{className}' (index {weapon.Index}) to player {playerName}.");        
            return HookResult.Continue;
        }, HookMode.Post);
    }
}

As you can see, it works as expected on Linux, but on Windows it crashes sometimes (I'd say most of the time). Maybe type safety must be added around DynamicHook API as we can have access violation exceptions...?

DynamicHook API is not working well on windows rn
