GPencil: Hide the help Circles for gaps when gap is closed

To avoid too much noise, the help circles are only visible if the
the gap is still open. When the gap is closed, the circles are hidden.

Hiding the circles makes it easier to focus on what is problematic.
instead, to see many circles that are already resolved.
