swaylock: Allow for transparent color values

There is only a slight issue. When using a transparent color the views
are arranged to make room for swaylock which we can now see. I tried removing
the arrange call but that just made it worse by putting in an opaque view on the
workspace and not making the lockoverlay color. Ill raise an issue if
this is not easily solved
