[Paraview] Colormap opacity / transparency

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Gray,

Currently ParaView supports changing the opacity in colormaps only for
volume rendering. When rending slice or points as surface or anything
other than volume, opacity will be fixed to single value that can be
set on the Display tab.
