picom: Make tint2 and thunar translucent

These are old changes I made while I was still using bspwm. Although
bspwm is an amazing window manager, I feel like the simplicity of GNOME,
as well as how customizable it can be, negates any potential benefits
one can achieve with bspwm and its vast configuration possibilities.

As one example, alttab is a cool piece of software that brings the
concept of alt-tabbing to window managers like bspwm, however, GNOME is
already capable of doing this and does so in a more elegant way, showing
views of the windows you're alt-tabbing between.
