Some fixes to BorderForInvisibleControl adorner as follows;

Only shows the adorner panel if the parent component is visible.
If component is a ContentControl it must be of type ContentControl specifically, and not derived types like Label and Button where the added border is not wanted.
If component is a Border the adorner border is only drawn on the edges that is invisible.
The adorner is only created the first time it is added to adorners collection.
