Material: docs(menu): missing new position modes

[Madd0g]

All the menu demos show the menu covering the button that triggered it, is it possible to position it under the button? Like the menu-bar component does? I see there's some position support, but it seems like it's only left/right?

It seems to me like there should be a way to keep the button visible and in active state when menu is triggered.

Thanks

@Madd0g use md-position-mode and md-offset to do it
Example: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/PPeMYJ

<md-menu md-position-mode="target-right target" md-offset="0 42">

You can also set the 2nd argument for position-mode to bottom, which is much cleaner as you don't need to specify the target height.

<md-menu md-position-mode="target-right bottom">

Guys please, make better documentation. Current is really painful. I have to search different things in google instead of Angular Material documentation. Compared to Django or even Vue Material documentations your is just bad.

@ThomasBurleson should anyone follow your links - they end up going in circles back here..

@Corsseir that's really helpful, thank you. I fully agree! Please let me know if there are any other parts of the docs that are not complete.

I've opened PR #11195 to address this missing documentation.
