Golden Gate changed the style of the native tab bar; now the tab bar has a glassy style, but AppKit also adds the window background color to the background, which looks weird on some themes.

Fixes #14411.

Others also proposed other approaches like changing the CALayer, but I think that's too complicated. Changing the opacity to 0.5 should cover most themes without sacrificing the glass style while maintaining the tab title's visibility.
