The Overlay is a region on the top right/left of the webview window which contains
the caption buttons (minimize, maximize, restore, close). Enabing the Overlay allows
for custom app title bars rendered completly inside the webview window.

The overlay Settings lives on the controller object.

This API is designed to be used in addition with the other non-client region APIs
and features. These include `app-region: drag`, and `IsNonClientRegionSupportEnabled`.
