64 bit probe

Since Windows has been default 64bit for a while and PRTG using PowerShellx86 for executing the EXEXML-scripts this causes problems when using certain PowerShell modules like failoverclusters when monitoring the witness-state of a SQL HA-cluster.

Now I have to use unsupported third-party applications like PSx64.exe from PRTG family, or I have to trick around is using command-blocks. This adds extra complexity and opportunities for failure.

Could you please add the possibility to switch the probe to use the 64-bit version of PowerShell for running EXEXML scripts?
