brightness HUD on macOS 14 Sonoma

NotNotch’s deployment target is macOS 14, so brightness HUD is built to run on Sonoma and later. Brightness changes can appear as a notch companion instead of the default overlay.

Later systems

The same brightness HUD path is intended to keep working through macOS 27 without bumping the minimum.
