Adds allow_fullscreen_opacity config option. When enabled, fullscreen windows
respect [un]focused_opacity settings instead of always being fully opaque.

This doesn't hurt to have as compositor-specific behavior while transparent

I am sure you already able to make window appears on top of fullscreen using toggleoverlay as a bind or isoverlay as window rule.
