I did some "investigations" and for transparency it should be possible to 
implement a
   BitBlt (same as StrechBlt now),
   StretchBlt (stretching part has to be done),
   MaskBlt (same as BitBlt but with a mask)
   and StrechMaskBlt (not a MS function but logical function here)

For TBitmap I added a maskbitmap and Draw (needs to be implemented).
