Embed view in build

[stropitek]

Because of couchdb compaction, we should not rely on a URL with a revision.

We can run into problems even if the flavor builder is running continuously. Example:

• Publish a view -> flavor-builder builds it
• Unpublish the view -> site built with flavor-builder still using the old revision
• Continue working the view -> creates new revisions and the revision used by the built site is deleted because of compaction -> built site cannot be loaded anymore.

To embed the view in the build, we can either create a copy of the view which will be served statically, or create a data url.

For simple view builds, it will resolve the issue completely.

For builds using visualizer-on-tabs, it can resolve the issue for the view which is opened by default, but the problem is still there when opening revisions in new tabs from the main view.
