Don't allow dragging layers onto their own canvas

Because it really only ever gets used accidentally by users being a bit sloppy about selecting or dragging layers, resulting in them duplicating layers unintentionally.

See for example https://krita-artists.org/t/i-keep-accidentally-creating-layer-copies/150650

I don't think this removes any useful functionality. All it did was serve as a weird way to duplicate layers and you can already do that with the duplicate layers button, so it's not like this increases the amount of clicks required to accomplish the action.

BUG:512771

Test Plan

  • Drag a layer from the layers dock onto its own canvas. Observe that it doesn't let you drop it there.
  • Drag it onto a different canvas. Observe that it works as before.

Formalities Checklist

  • I confirmed this builds.
  • I confirmed Krita ran and the relevant functions work.
  • I tested the relevant unit tests and can confirm they are not broken. (If not possible, don't hesitate to ask for help!)
  • I made sure my commits build individually and have good descriptions as per KDE guidelines.
  • I made sure my code conforms to the standards set in the HACKING file.
  • I can confirm the code is licensed and attributed appropriately, and that unattributed code is mine, as per KDE Licensing Policy.
  • Does the patch add a user-visible feature? If yes, is there a documentation MR ready for it at Krita Documentation Repository?

Reminder: the reviewer is responsible for merging the patch, this is to ensure at the least two people can build the patch. In case a patch breaks the build, both the author and the reviewer should be contacted to fix the build. If this is not possible, the commits shall be reverted, and a notification with the reasoning and any relevant logs shall be sent to the mailing list, kimageshop@kde.org.
