Default How to bring data labels in front of objects

All chart elements float in their particular layer in the chart. The
layer that contains shapes, pictures, etc., is in a layer in front of
all chart element layers.

You could replace the data labels with text boxes, which float in the
shapes layer. Within the shapes layer, the shapes can be reordered.

The problem with text boxes is they are not linked to points the way
data labels are.
