View widgets and shared data

So called “view widgets” allow separation of data and view. This system has three parts:

1. Models are defined by kas::model, principally SharedData. Separate models are available for ListData and MatrixData.

2. Views are widgets constructed over shared data by a controller. The view controller is a special widget responsible for constructing and managing view widgets over data.

   Three controllers are available: SingleView, ListView and MatrixView.

   In the case of ListView and MatrixView, the controller provides additional features: enabling scrolling of content, “paging” (loading only visible content) and (optionally) allowing selection of items.

3. Drivers are the “glue” enabling a view controller to build view widget(s) tailored to a specific data type as well as (optionally) updating this data in response to widget events.

   If the driver is not explicitly provided, driver::View is used, which provides a read-only view over several data types. Other options are available in the driver module, or Driver may be implemented directly.
