[[email protected]] Fix for Mint 20+/Cinnamon 4…

….6+ (#740)

1. Fix to work with Mint 20+/Cinnamon 4.6+ (tested Mint20.3 and Mint22)
2. Changed the config slider to be a percentage
3. Clarified the wording so that it makes it a bit more clear that this really is a dimming effect not really a blur effect
