[svgwg] Issue: Allow percentages in fill-opacity, stroke-opacity, & stop-opacity, to match CSS WG changes marked as Paint Servers chapter

AmeliaBR has just labeled an issue for https://github.com/w3c/svgwg as
 "Paint Servers chapter":

== Allow percentages in fill-opacity, stroke-opacity, & stop-opacity, 
to match CSS WG changes ==
The CSS WG [has resolved to allow percentages interchangeable with 
decimals](https://twitter.com/LeaVerou/status/753274612671090689) in 
the `opacity` property and in all color functions that take an alpha 
value.  I don't have the details yet, but I'm sure this was mostly to 
match with author expectations.  `opacity: 50%` is just easier for 
many people to grok, compared to `opacity: 0.5`.

It would therefore expect that, to keep author expectations met, we 
would want to update `fill-opacity`, `stroke-opacity`, and 
`stop-opacity` to also allow `<number>|<percentage>`, with percentages
 relative to 1.
