 respect alpha background

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Here is a patch that adds this option as a frame parameter.

I hope I did everything correctly, but I have never worked with the
Emacs C source before, so I probably made some mistakes in style or
logic.

Also, should this be factored out so that `border-alpha-background' is
its own parameter? In that case, a lot of functions would need to be
changed (the `respect-alpha-background' parameter in many xterm.c
functions would probably be changed to just a `double alpha` or
something like that). I am up for that, but I'm not sure if it would
be a helpful change.

Please let me know how it looks!
