Description

I want to set my theme background color to be transparent. How would this be achieved?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how terminal colors support transparency (e.g., using the alpha channel in terminal emulators like Alacritty or kitty). Understand the current theme system in Zellij (src/panes/theme.rs) and consider adding an optional transparency field to theme colors. Look at how other terminal tools implement transparent backgrounds.
