Dim the editor window while it's quitting

This makes it clearer that the editor window is busy while it's quitting
(which can take a while on slower PCs).
This also makes it feel more responsive to user input.

Note that the effect is only visible if
"Interface > Editor > Quit Confirmation" is disabled in the
Editor Settings, as the quit confirmation already makes
the editor window dim while quitting.
