We now have RunningInAutomation has a general concern in views.View, so
we no longer need to specify it for each command-specific constructor
separately.
For this initial change I focused only on changing the exported interface
of the views package and let the command-specific views go on having their
own unexported fields containing a copy of the flag because it made this
change less invasive and I wasn't feeling sure yet about whether we
ought to have code within command-specific views directly access the
internals of views.View. However, maybe we'll simplify this further in
a later commit if we conclude that these copies of the flag are
burdensome.
The general version of this gets set directly inside the main package,
which might at some future point allow us to make the command package
itself unaware of this "running in automation" idea and thus reinforce
that it's intended as a presentation-only thing rather than as a
behavioral thing, but we'll save more invasive refactoring for another
day.
The previous implementation of views was copying and embedding the base
View struct in each individual view. While this allowed for easy access
to the interface of that struct (both in the view and externally), it more
importantly completely broke the ability of the diagnostic printer to
output source code snippets.
This is because the `configSources` field on the base view is lazily set
after the config loader is initialized. In the commands ported to use
views, this happens after the base View struct is copied, so we are
updating the wrong copy of the struct.
This commit fixes this with a simple mechanical refactor: keep a pointer
to the base View struct instead, and update all of the individual views
to explicitly refer to that struct to access its fields and methods.
This is not a particularly satisfying solution, but I can't find
anything clearly better. It might be worth exploring the alternative
approach in the view for the new test command, which explicitly pulls
its dependencies out of the base view, rather than retaining a full
reference. Maybe there's a third way which is better still.
