A via, by definition, connects one layer to another, and thus requires
a hole of some sort between layers.  PCB has no way of noting that a
particular via should be filled with anything, or covered.  Talk to
your fab and see what they recommend, often they can make these
customizations for you without support in the gerbers for it.
