Description
### Is this a regression?
- [X] Yes, this behavior used to work in the previous version
### The previous version in which this bug was not present was
14
### Description
I have two bugs with a sticky mat-table and not with table with mat-table directive :
- The button's z-index has changed since version 15.0.0. The sticky and button column are both 1, which makes the button visible (but not the table background), a Workaround st z-index to 2 on sticky column.
- When I have several columns in a table with a fixed column, the fixed column also moves.
### Reproduction
StackBlitz link: https://stackblitz.com/edit/tu9ax3
### Expected Behavior
That anything that scrolls under the sticky column is not visible and the sticky column is real sticky.
### Actual Behavior
The button is above the sticky column, and the sticky column is not really sticky.
### Environment
- Angular: 15 - 16
- CDK/Material: 15 - 16
- Browser(s): Chrome Lastest version
- Operating System (e.g. Windows, macOS, Ubuntu): Windows 11

Research direction
Start with the linked StackBlitz reproduction and compare its Angular/CDK/Material 14 and 15 behavior for a sticky mat-table with a fixed column and button column. Confirm that scrolling content is hidden beneath the sticky column, the fixed column remains fixed, and the button no longer appears above it.
