Post morterm

The regressions were due to some problems in the inheritance chain which meant the incorrect class on Overlays was being set. I've documented them in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/mediawiki/extensions/MobileFrontend/+/476404 Overlays should respect inheritance chain when passing up options

This did not make the train so no SWATs are needed

QA steps

We should visit every single possible overlay in mobile and verify that nothing looks odd about them. Please test this on the BETA CLUSTER
Ideally this should happen after the completion of T209007

The overlays to check are

I can do generalQA on this as part of my other QA tasks.

Not seeing any problems. Checked all overlays on beta cluster. All display.
While testing I noticed that I'm not seeing any notifications on the beta cluster. Have reached out to a few people to check that is isolated to me or a known issue.
