Transparent windows don't translate well to multigrid. #1626

Description

@FlafyDev

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
In Neovim I have my Telescope window transparent like this:

But when enabling Multigrid, because it makes all windows see through, the Telescope window merges with the contents behind, making it unreadable.

Describe the solution you'd like
I'd like to be able to choose whether or not I want floating windows to be see through. Currently the only way to hide the content behind them is by setting a background color to the floating window, which doesn't solve my issue.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Another solution would be being able to set the opacity for the content behind the floating window.

Additional context
I think this can be easily understood from the screenshots, but I insist on making my floating windows transparent because my terminal is also transparent and I'd like the regular windows and the floating windows to share the same background, which isn't a solid color.
