Subject: [PATCH] Always On Top: The opacity should be able to configure the
hotkey individually (#46410)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request adds support for customizing the hotkeys used to
increase and decrease the opacity of pinned windows in the Always On Top
module.
Previously, these shortcuts were hardcoded to use the same modifiers as
the main pin hotkey.
With these changes, users can now independently configure the increase
and decrease opacity shortcuts via the settings UI, and the backend has
been updated to respect and store these new settings.
Another change: If window is not Always On Topped, the opacity change
take no effect, so we should not intercept, we should pass through to
minimize the impact.
