Description of Change

This PR enhances titlebarStyle on Windows to support Window Controls Overlay. See this PR for the macOS implementation and other documentation. The parameter titlebarStyle: 'hidden' used with titleBarOverlay: true will turn on this feature on Windows with default system colors. Additionally for the Windows implementation, the color of the overlay buttons and its symbols can be specified by setting titleBarOverlay to an object with the options color and symbolColor respectively. As addressed in the open questions of the Window Controls Overlay specification, there is no current implementation for customizing the title bar height. This will be addressed in a future PR.

Checklist

Release Notes

Notes: Added support for Windows Control Overlay on Windows.

Requesting changes just so this doesn't land in the current state, we had some offline discussions mostly revolving around the large quantity of copied code in the windows PR but both PRs should be updated to only take effect when a new "overlay" tile bar style is defined. This should affect any existing apps.

@mlaurencin is it possible to trigger "Windows 11 snap layout" programmatically without using "native" title bar?
I have a custom titlebar in my app and I'm not sure if native titlbar allows similar customizability

@aleksey-hoffman have you look at https://web.dev/window-controls-overlay/ to see if it meets your needs?

If it doesn't, it might be good to open an issue in the original explainer:

@molant thanks for the links. It looks like the current implementation doesn't allow full customizability of the titlebar. It seems I will have to implement my own "Win 11 snap layouts" feature

@aleksey-hoffman unfortunately, I do not know of a way to trigger the snap layout programmatically.

Even if you are implementing your own feature, it might still be worth opening an issue on the explainer as mentioned above in case there are others wanting similar customizability.

@mlaurencin yep, I just checked, someone already opened an issue about this
