layout: Allow updating struts in Overview

LayoutManager doesn't update struts when there's any modal running. Turns
out, the Overview itself is a modal. That, and the fact that the Overview
will be the startup state, prevents the workarea to be updated.

Allow updating struts when there's no other modal than the Overview.
