Bug Description

At the moment we have a problem where if I have the sound indicator open and I use function keys to change the volume, I get a notification over this menu. This is duplicate UI since I can see the sound level change right there in the indicator.

We should move confirmation notifications that are covered by the indicator to the indicator since only it knows whether or not it's opened

This would also give the indicator the unique ability to immediately dismiss the notification associated with it if it is opened.

On second thought, maybe what we want is just some way for the indicator to tell Gala that it doesn't need to show that confirmation. So maybe we want a dbus API or something to inhibit specific confirmations. That way we don't have to move the notification showing logic itself and things can stay modular.

DBus, or maybe just disable gala handling Volume notifications with a compilation flag if it's being built for elementary
