Sliding window maximum deque
Given an array of integers nums and a window size k (1 <= k <= len(nums)), return a list of the maximum value of each contiguous window of size k as the window slides left to right. Do it in O(n) total time. The array is non-empty.

State your approach and its time/space complexity out loud before you optimize. Handle the edge cases (empty input, duplicates, overflow), and say why you chose this over the brute force. Green tests are the floor, not the grade.
