Logic needed to assign outlines Draw order of 585 #219

Since both static points and lines/outlines are of "Map Type": "point", it is suggested the the way to disambiguate the two for the purpose of assigning different draw orders may be through their Draw Functions:

WebGLVectorTile2.basicDrawPoints in the case of points

_WebGLVectorTile2.prototype._drawLineString_ in the case of outlines

This is an example that would be impacted by this change. Layers should be on top of points and choropleths.

Low priority as most of these current layers have now been manually assigned 585 in the spreadsheet.
