Do we use the convention 0=opaque and 255=transparent as RECT_P OR PIXON_P?

Yes, this is another bug in BLIT_P, where the alpha value is inconsistent (inverted) with other PPL graphics commands. Personally, I would probably prefer ATEXTOUT_P to be consistent with most commands in terms of transparency.
