Mapbox GL Mouse over event fix plugin

Mapbox GL Mouse over event fix plugin

The current implementation of mouseenter and mouseleave events in mapbox-gl are a little buggy:

• a mouseenter event is generated on a layer X even if layer Y is above layer X on the enter region.
• a mouseleave event is generated on a layer Y if layer Y is above layer X and the mouse is moved when in a region that belongs to both X and Y.
• the bubble effect found commonly in the DOM is not respected (stopPropagation for instance).

This plugin attempt to correct those misbehaviors but does not implement stopImmediatePropagation.
