refactor(overlay): use component to render backdrop

Uses an Angular component to render the backdrop, instead of managing a DOM element manually. This has the advantage of being able to leverage the animations API to transition in/out, as well as not having to worry about the cases where the backdrop animation is disabled.

These changes also enable the backdrop transition for the dialog (previously it would be removed immediately on close).
