We want to start with a pre-cached state, so we have both less work to do when
keys are first pressed, and so that plugins that rely on the live composite
state will work reliably too.

For all cases outside of Kaleidoscope itself, we are good with the value of
`highestLayer`, and do not need to re-scan the layer state. For this reason -
upon @obra's suggestion - rename `Layer.highest()` to `Layer.top()`, and the old
`Layer.top()` to `Layer.updateHighestLayer()`, and make the latter private, and
update the `highestLayer` member variable instead of returning the number.

We are fine with the cached value, so lets use that and save a little time,
rather than the always-correct `Layer.top()`.

`layer_getKey` was introduced in 6d641e7fc5, by
mistake, it was never implemented. Remove it now to avoid any possible
confusion.

Sometimes we would like to know the highest active layer, which is available in
the `highestLayer` private variable, and via `.top()` too. We do not want to
make `highestLayer` public, because we want to be the only ones changing it. And
while `top()` gets us roughly the same information, it does so at a cost. For a
lot of purposes, the cached `highestLayer` would be perfectly adequate.
The new `Layer.highest()` accessor does just this.

Now that we only care about the highest active layer, make sure we only do work
if that changed between two cycles. This way, `onActivate()` will take care of
the initial setup, `update()` will be an almost no-op for most of the time, and
`refreshAt()` will take care of refreshing keys other plugins may have changed.
This makes us about twice as fast as we were, on average.

The underlying `LED-PaletteTheme` plugin stopped supporting transparent colors,
and as a consequence, so did we. Update the README accordingly.

Supporting transparency is very, very expensive in terms of speed, while the
benefits are marginal at best. Drop support for it for now.
