Peek window blocks mouse events on GNOME Wayland

[v4dkou]

System Information

• OS: Fedora 34
• Distribution package: peek-1.5.1-3.fc34.x86_64
• Peek version: Peek 1.5.1
• Gnome 40.5

Describe the bug The transparent part of the Peek window captures mouse events during recording

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior, for example:

1. Start peek
2. Start recording a portion of a browser
3. Try clicking on links, hovering on links or using the scroll on your mouse.
4. None of the events are received by the underlying application (in this case, the browser)

Expected behavior Mouse events should be passed through, otherwise there's no way of recording interactions.

Still makes peek unusable on Ubuntu 22.04 inside a Wayland session
