Feature: --no-fading-openclose to partially simulate -F

-F hasn't being working for long. This commit adds a switch
--no-fading-openclose (and a configuration file option of the same name)
to simulate the behavior when only -F is enabled, which disables fading
when opening/closing windows, and makes -F an alias for -f.
