Option to customize the overlay colour during hover.

There should be an option inside chewie controller to mention the color for overlay. Currently it's Colors.black54 and can't be changed.

A workaround to remove that overlay is to wrap the player into a Theme widget with iOS target platform:

final themeData = Theme.of(context);
return Theme(
  data: themeData.copyWith(platform: TargetPlatform.iOS),
  child: Chewie(controller: chewieController),
);

As a side effect, you will get CupertinoControls so set the controls class explicitly if you care.

If you want an overlay of a different color, you can add it through ChewieController.overlay.
