[MapQuery] getLayerByOpenLayersId?

[Steven M. Ottens]

  I've introduced two new events bound to the Map object which should 
make life easier:
mqAddLayer and mqRemoveLayer, I put mq in front of it to make sure we 
don't meddle with OL events.

-mqAddLayer will give you the layer object
-mqRemoveLayer will give the id of the removed layer

The 'AddLayer' event from OpenLayers returns a OpenLayers Layer object. There is currently no easy way to get the corresponding MapQuery layer. For the LayerManager, which should add a layer to the manager after a layer has been added, I need to get the layer object.
