Description of Change

new BrowserWindow({ appShim, frame: false, transparent: true, hasShadow: false }) still got the system shadow, because NativeWindowMacRemote::SetHasShadow only stores the value. This sets ShadowType::kNone on the widget at creation, which NativeWidgetMacNSWindowHost sends to the shim as has_window_server_shadow = false. The option is read above the app_shim lookup because reading options can run JavaScript that disconnects the shim.

focusable was ignored the same way. focusable: false now sets Activatable::kNo at creation.

Checked on a local build at Chromium 158: a focusable: false window rejects typing and doesn't take focus from the frontmost app, setFocusable(true) makes it focusable, and the new spec passes. Not run on 44-x-y.
