Menu hidden behind the bar

SUMMARY

When i use the Application Menu (Kicker) on a bottom panel that is set to automatically hide, the sub menus expand to far down to be hidden behind the panel (see attachment).


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up a panel with Kicker on it
2. Open a sub menu with sufficient entries in it.

OBSERVED RESULT
The new sub menu extends behind the panel, preventing access to the lower entries.

EXPECTED RESULT
The new sub menu should not extend below the panel thus preventing it to be hidden. This is the behavior when the auto hide function is off.

Drop DockLayer concept

With LayerShell all docks were in the above layer to match with the
semantics of the specification. Under X11 our main panel was also in the
above layer by setting the keep above flag.

The only thing that ended up in the dock layer were wayland applet
popups, and that was mostly by accident. When they get a transient
parent fixed they'll end up in the AboveLayer anyway so we should drop
it now to reduce complications.

This fixes a bug where applet popups could go under the panel.
