Simplified ui_stack_system (#9889)
# Objective

`ui_stack_system` generates a tree of `StackingContexts` which it then
flattens to get the `UiStack`.

But there's no need to construct a new tree. We can query for nodes with
a global `ZIndex`, add those nodes to the root nodes list and then build
the `UiStack` from a walk of the existing layout tree, ignoring any
branches that have a global `Zindex`.

Fixes #9877

## Solution

Split the `ZIndex` enum into two separate components, `ZIndex` and
`GlobalZIndex`

Query for nodes with a `GlobalZIndex`, add those nodes to the root nodes
list and then build the `UiStack` from a walk of the existing layout
tree, filtering branches by `Without<GlobalZIndex>` so we don't revisit
nodes.

```
cargo run --profile stress-test --features trace_tracy --example many_buttons
```

## Changelog
`Zindex`
* The `ZIndex` enum has been split into two separate components `ZIndex`
(which replaces `ZIndex::Local`) and `GlobalZIndex` (which replaces
`ZIndex::Global`). An entity can have both a `ZIndex` and
`GlobalZIndex`, in comparisons `ZIndex` breaks ties if two
`GlobalZIndex` values are equal.

`ui_stack_system`
* Instead of generating a tree of `StackingContexts`, query for nodes
with a `GlobalZIndex`, add those nodes to the root nodes list and then
build the `UiStack` from a walk of the existing layout tree, filtering
branches by `Without<GlobalZIndex` so we don't revisit nodes.

## Migration Guide

The `ZIndex` enum has been split into two separate components `ZIndex`
(which replaces `ZIndex::Local`) and `GlobalZIndex` (which replaces
`ZIndex::Global`). An entity can have both a `ZIndex` and
`GlobalZIndex`, in comparisons `ZIndex` breaks ties if two
`GlobalZindex` values are equal.
