Fade in windows, tooltips, popups, etc (#4587)

All `Area`s now have a quick fade-in animation. You can turn it off with
`Area::fade_in` or `Window::fade_in` .

The `Window` fade-out animation is now nicer: it fades all elements of
the window, not just the frame.
It can be controlled with `Window::fade_out`.
