About the pull request

Pretty much the title. Visible messages (visible_message proc) don't give off messages to others if the origin is cloaked.

I'm a bit leery of doing this on visible_message so this is gonna need testing first.

Makes checking for cloaking better, adding a trait on cloak instead of checking for user alpha

Explain why it's good for the game

Being able to see things like "Unknown peers through the laser designator" while they're invisible is a pretty large tell despite you not having seen them.

Added to title; changelog isn't needed due to it not being player-facing
