spec for view types (#15424)

* spec for view types
* spec additions
* refactoring; there are two different kinds of views
* refactorings and spec additions
* enforce that view types are initialized
* enforce borrowing from the first formal parameter
* enforce lifetimes for borrowing of locals
* typo in the manual
* clarify in the implementation what a borrow operation really is
