Modals cannot be closed by clicking on the overlay

[ntoombs19]

Preconditions

1. Magento version: 2.1.1
2. Browser: Chrome
3. OS: OS X El Capitan 10.11.6

Steps to reproduce

1. Sign in as a customer
2. Add some products to your cart
3. Go to checkout
4. Click the + New Address button
5. With the modal open, click anywhere in the dark grey background (the overlay)

Expected result

1. The modal should close. This is the modals default behavior unless it is explicitly overridden on initialization, which it isn't anywhere in the code base.

Actual result

1. Nothing happens. There are no error messages in the console either.
