Additional layers for waterfall_plot

This notebook demonstrates how to enrich a waterfall plot with background and foreground layers. Foreground layers can be added using the regular + operator. To add background layers, use the new background_layers property.

Limitations:

• Layers must provide their own data
• Data coordinates are expected to be numeric
