Subject: [PATCH] Add ability to check GLFW_TRANSPARENT hint outcome with
 `glfwGetWindowAttrib()`

To make this possible, in situations where GLFW_TRANSPARENT is requested
but failed to match with a FBConfig, the internal framebufer hint is set
to GLFW_FALSE.

glfwGetWindowAttrib() then relies on the internal
`_glfw.framebuffer.hint.transparent` bool.
