changed to solid gridlines as default, added option to set axis_below #43

Personally, I'm not a fan of a dotted grid (it seems too busy to me). So I'm making a request to return to

"grid.linestyle": "solid", :)

I also added an optional argument in axes.lines to set axis_below=True, which sets the grid lines below the plotted content (i.e. with a lower z coordinate). This seems much nicer to me in general, but in particular for bar charts and histograms.

I had to make some changes to the axis.lines() function, and to avoid merge conflicts, I made the changes you proposed here in #45. Therefore, I will close this PR once #45 is merged. I hope you dont mind :)
