Andreas Kling 9b71307d49 WindowServer: Support windows with alpha channels. And per-WSWindow opacity. ...

This patch also adds a Format concept to GraphicsBitmap. For now there are
only two formats: RGB32 and RGBA32. Windows with alpha channel have their
backing stores created in the RGBA32 format.

Use this to make Terminal windows semi-transparent for that comfy rice look.
There is one problem here, in that window compositing overdraw incurs
multiple passes of blending of the same pixels. This leads to a mismatch in
opacity which is obviously not good. I will work on this in a later patch.

The alpha blending is currently straight C++. It should be relatively easy
to optimize this using SSE instructions.

For now I'm just happy with the cute effect. :^)
