Add support for `gameLevels` query parameter #230

Recently, a user expressed their concern that the isotope symbol notation could be confusing if students are comparing it to the typical periodic table notation (see #229). Our notation choices in the sim are correct, but could be confusing to younger students. The Symbol screen is easily eliminated with screens, but game levels 3 & 4 still contain the symbol notation.

In fourier-making-waves, we used the gameLevels query parameter to allow users to select which levels are available on the level selection screen. I think we should do the same here the next time the sim is republished from master.

Also note that challengesPerLevel doesn't appear to work in the published version of the sim, so let's review that too when we get to this issue.
