Issue

Ref: #5425

Instead of introducing a new slider, the opacity slider behaves differently in presence of a subset: it still regulates the opacity of the brush of subset, but at the same time it decreases the opacity of the pen of points not in the subset. The slider is still named opacity because I don't think the user will notice that (s)he now essentially regulates the contrast.

For now I implemented this for discrete coloring. If we decide that we like it, I'll change the continuous palette and monochromatic scatterplot in the same fashion.

Comments welcome.

Alternative -- better, I think: decrease opacity for non-subset points faster than for the subset. This solution has a single slider which controls both, opacity and contrast at the same time. Two sliders would, I think, have to have the same effect as this single slider, but with more work from the user.

I'd appreciate a quick review (from the point of the user for now) before I update the failing tests. @ajdapretnar or @markotoplak, maybe?
