Alert Windows behavioral changes
- Introduced TYPE_APPLICATION_OVERLAY window type. Can be used by apps to display windows on top of other app windows, but below critical system windows. - Deprecate alert window types TYPE_PHONE, TYPE_SYSTEM_ALERT, TYPE_SYSTEM_OVERLAY, TYPE_PRIORITY_PHONE, and TYPE_SYSTEM_ERROR. Apps should now use TYPE_APP_OVERLAY for this. - Apps targetting O or greater are not allowed to add the old alert window types. Apps targetting less than O can still add the old types. Apps with permission INTERNAL_SYSTEM_WINDOW (system signature apps) can still add the old types. - Z-order old alert windows types below TYPE_APPLICATION_OVERLAY if they are added by an app without the INTERNAL_SYSTEM_WINDOW permission.
