Make WINDOW_G configurable

This makes WINDOW_G a configurable value in the range of [3..24].
The upper limit of 24 is a defensive choice. The code is probably
correct for values up to 33 but those larger values yield in huge
tables (>= 256MiB), which are i) unlikely to be really beneficial
in practice and ii) increasingly difficult to test.
