#3230: Order of loading layers

'''Problem:''' The layers are loaded bottom up in OL.
Three '''reasons''' why this is not optimal:
1. You have one functional unneeded variable "len" in the for-loop.
2. It looks often better if the top layers are faster ready because they
are in the most cases(my opinion) the visible ones.
3. The performance for the user. When the first layer is/are ready the
user can drag/zoom faster because he things the app is ready. For OL it's
not a problem because unnecessary requests are aborted for server side
maybe but the user would drag/zoom anyway.
The last reason doesn't fit really now, because requesting new tiles is
preventing a smooth dragging/zooming.
We didn't have any issues with it.
'''Solution:''' See patch.
