Modal dialogs.

## When To Use

When requiring users to interact with the application, but without jumping to a new page and interrupting
the user's workflow, you can use `Modal` to create a new floating layer over the current page to get user
feedback or display information.
Additionally, if you need show a simple confirmation dialog, you can use `antd.Modal.confirm()`,
and so on.

### Modal.method()

There are five ways to display the information based on the content's nature:

- `Modal.info`
- `Modal.success`
- `Modal.error`
- `Modal.warning`
- `Modal.confirm`

The items listed above are all functions, expecting a settings object as parameter.
The properties of the object are follows:

| Property   | Description    | Type             | Default       |
|------------|----------------|------------------|---------------|
| title      | Title           | string\|ReactNode | -           |
| content    | Content           | string\|ReactNode | -          |
| onOk       | Specify a function that will be called when the user clicks the OK button. The parameter of this function is a function whose execution should include closing the dialog. You can also just return a promise and when the promise is resolved, the modal dialog will also be closed    | function         | -           |
| onCancel   | Specify a function that will be called when the user clicks the Cancel button. The parameter of this function is a function whose execution should include closing the dialog. You can also just return a promise and when the promise is resolved, the modal dialog will also be closed       | function         | -           |
| width      | Width of the modal dialog           | string\|number | 416           |
| iconType   | Icon `type` of the Icon component    | string | `question-circle` |
| okText     | Text of the OK button    | string           | `OK`       |
| okType    | Button `type` of the OK button                              | string        | `primary`   |
| cancelText | Text of the Cancel button    | string           | `Cancel`       |
| maskClosable | Whether to close the modal dialog when the mask (area outside the modal) is clicked | Boolean   | `false`       |
| zIndex | The `z-index` of the Modal | Number | 1000 |

All the `Modal.method`s will return a reference, and then we can close the modal dialog by the reference.

```jsx
const ref = Modal.info();
ref.destroy();
```

<style>
.code-box-demo .ant-btn {
  margin-right: 8px;
}
</style>
