Error removing layer when using mapbox-gl 0.43.0

See original GitHub issue

Mapbox-gl v0.43.0 introduces a breaking change that throws an error if a source is removed while still in use (e.g. remove a source prior to removing layers that use the source, https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-js/pull/5562 ). This was discovered in #491.

Example error:

mapbox-gl.js:546 Error: Source "example_id" cannot be removed while layer "example_id_marker" is using it.

Yup I had to deal with this change in ngx-mapbox-gl too (https://github.com/Wykks/ngx-mapbox-gl/issues/10). @alex3165 Instead of calling mapbox-gl method directly, we can buffer the removes request, then in the same frame after react work if possible process the removes in a defined order.
