fix(highlight): floating windows inherit NormalFloat from global-ns

Problem:
floating windows did not correctly inherit the NormalFloat highlight
group from the global namespace when it was not defined in the window-specific
namespace. This led to floating windows losing their background highlight when
switching between namespaces.

Solution:
Updated the window highlight logic in update_window_hl() to handle the fallback.

This fix resolves issues with floating window backgrounds not displaying as expected
in certain namespace configurations.
