Add custom layer property to render a layer over labels in the map ca…

…nvas

Usage:

layer.setCustomProperty('rendering/renderAboveLabels', True)

This is exposed only as a layer custom property since it's really just
exposing some private internals of the rendering map composition. It's
not supported outside of canvas, and only works when parallel rendering
with render cache is enabled.

It's not exposed anywhere in GUI for this same reason. Consider it a
hidden API call until someone implements proper handling of mixed
layer/label stacking order.
