DataView is a mechanism for "viewing" Scala objects as a subtype of
`Data`. Often, this is useful for viewing one subtype of `Data`, as
another. One can think about a DataView as a cross between a
customizable cast and an untagged union.
A DataView has a Target type `T`, and a View type `V`. DataView requires
that an implementation of `DataProduct` is available for Target types.
DataProduct is a type class that provides a way to iterate on `Data`
children of objects of implementing types.
If a DataView is provided for a type T to a type V, then the function
.viewAs[V] (of type T => V) is available. The object (of type T) returned
by .viewAs is called a "View" and can be used as both an rvalue and an
lvalue. Unlike when using an .asTypeOf cast, connecting to a "View" will
connect to the associated field or fields of the underlying Target.
DataView also enables .viewAsSupertype which is available for viewing
Bundles as a parent Bundle type. It is similar to .viewAs but requires
a prototype object of the Target type which will be cloned in order to
create the returned View. .viewAsSupertype maps between the
corresponding fields of the parent and child Bundle types.
