Title: Do not check for layer.maxExtent.

layer.maxExtent is always set as soon as the layer is added to a map. Instead, making behavior consistent with tiled layers: don't display outside maxExtent except when displayOutsideMaxExtent is set to true or the layer's extent equals the world bounds for maps with a baseLayer that has wrapDateLine set to true.
