createLayer doesn't follow vizjson layers visible setting

[jsanz]

Adding a visualization using createLayer doesn't follow the settings from the editor about layers visibility so all layers are shown. I've tried this both on GMaps and Leaflet so I'm not sure if this is something intentional or a bug (??)

I have noticed something similar when working with cartoDB and leaflet, and I think it might be the same bug. I just updated to the newest version of CartoDB.js from v3.11.36 because my hovering tooltips stopped working on an older version when I rebuilt a map with new data. The newest version of cartoDB.js now brings in the basemap with the visualization instead of just the visualization layer and it is covering up the other map layers.

@MuellerMatthew that looks like a different thing. Could you please open a new issue and attach/include some code to reproduce what you are describing! Thanks!

When we create a visualization using cartodb.createVis, we're doing this. cartodb.createLayer is not doing something equivalent. So then, when we get the visible layers, all layers are considered to be visible.
