Creates a titled window that contains the specified content view controller.

ViewController: The view controller that provides the main content view for the window. The window’s contentView property is set to contentViewController.view.

Returns a window with the content view controller set to the passed-in view controller object.

This method creates a basic window object that is titled, closable, resizable, and miniaturizable. By default, the window's title is automatically bound to the title of contentViewController. You can control the size of the window by using Auto Layout and applying size constraints to the view or its subviews. The initial size of the window is set to the initial size of contentView (that is, the size of contentViewController.view). The newly created window has releasedWhenClosed set to NO, and it must be explicitly retained to keep the window instance alive.
