Some layers don't get default draw order at creation #187

Census dotmap layers currently have no assigned draw order, so if base layers occur in the link after the dotmap layer, the dotmaps become invisible.

550 is the current proposed draw order for census dotmaps.

An example of the incorrect behavior can be seen here: https://staging.earthtime.org/explore#waypoints=1heLmeuPp7j4itr0cK8H4chugOpp7cU8p_VEB9CFfPlY.0&v=40.39988,-79.92097,9.193,latLng&t=0.03&ps=50&l=bdrk,acs2016_work_young_males,bdrk_detailed&bt=20180101&et=20181231&startDwell=0&endDwell=0

Census dotmaps are an example. Some outline layers, e.g. school district outlines are another example.

As of c9d53695efa73ccdf3d35873702485c91185590c, All layers now receive a drawing order, according to the following recipe:

If 'Draw Order' specified in spreadsheet, use that, otherwise: Category 'Base Maps': 100 Map type raster, raster2, timemachine: 200 Map type choropleth: 400 Map type dotmap: 550 Map type vector, bubble: 600 All others: 400

The design doc https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uesUk8OaWr4yQAXfuvgVMJGEY0Cr9q3gCrFy6sfqOxg/edit#heading=h.5rjrxfchcuyr also specifies Dot flows (e.g. refugees) as 700. These are type='vector', so let's override them in the spreadsheets. (Added as #188)
