Layouts autosave on initial load

[cmccloud]

Description

Spacemacs layers autosave functionality fails to trigger on spacemacs load.

Reproduction guide

• Start Emacs
  ;; somewhere before layout layer load, e.g. user/init
  (setq layouts-enable-autosave t)

Observed behaviour:
Autosave is not enabled.
spacemacs--layouts-autosave-timer => nil

Expected behaviour:
Autosave enabled.
spacemacs--layouts-autosave-timer => timer-object

Cause
Layouts autosave is added to persp-mode-hooks in the config portion of the layer declaration, while persp-mode is activated in the init portion.

By the way, @CestDiego, the layer is looking really good =)
