fix(panel): allow transform to be animated on an offset panel

Previously, if a panel had a position with an offset (e.g. `$mdPanel.newPanelPosition().center()`), the positioning would break any `transform` animations on the panel. This was due to the fact that `mdPanel` uses inline `transform` styles to do the offsetting. These changes introduce a wrapper around the panel (`.md-panel-inner-wrapper`), which will handle all of the positioning, allowing for any animations to be applied to the `.md-panel` itself.

Relates to #9641.
Fixes #9905.
