Named macOS window levels, mirroring RecordKit's RKWindow.Level Swift type.

A Window's level is a raw integer. macOS assigns windows to a small set of well-known levels; this map lets you compare a window's level against those named values, e.g.

if (window.level === WINDOW_LEVELS.floating) { ... }
if (window.level >= WINDOW_LEVELS.mainMenu) { ... } // at or above the menu bar

Levels are Comparable in Swift: a higher number is drawn in front of a lower one. Some names share the same numeric value (e.g. floating, submenu, tornOffMenu are all 3).
