Draw NagView in overlay mode

The NagView takes some actual space in the Y and when it appears
it cause the documents' content to be displaced.

The movement of the documents' content is annoying and should be
avoided so we draw the NagView entirely in overlay mode using defer
draw and we always keep its y size to zero to don't affect the
other application contents.
