Improve the marker for highlighting text

[PrSunflower]

Hi, I really like Flameshot, thanks to all the developers who have worked on it!

Suggestion

I use the marker to highlight text and it looks very pale, to compensate I often have to highlight multiple times which is annoying. The best highlighter I know is from Windows's Snip & Sketch so I did a comparison below:

Black text on light background

White text on dark background

Flameshot does a good job at keeping the text visible so this is not linked to my request:

My request is to improve the opacity of the Marker tool in order to make the highlighting of text more visible.

Perhaps we can add a slider in the Tool Settings so that users can adjust the opacity from that menu.

@mmahmoudian That would be really nice!

Also a duplicate of #249. If we add it to Tool settings it would likely be global opacity. Is this okay? Maybe we should get RFC feedback so we only need to implement it once.

@borgmanJeremy Oh right, I haven't stumbled upon this issue before creating mine.

I agree with the global opacity setting. If I understand well this opacity slider will also influence the pencil, rectangle, circle etc. and I agree with that.

Thanks for replying, now closing this issue.
