- correct XML comment typo introduced in `HtmlHelper` in 56d66c090e (bad merge)
- fix missed `null` requirement for `@Html.RadioButtonFor()` and remove buried `null` check
- add back `Environment.Newline` to `@Html.TextArea()` (was dropped though comment wasn't)
- don't call other extension methods
- #847 line 7
- remove extension methods that do nothing but pass through to the interface method
- weren't exactly ambiguous (interface method wins) but were useless
- see line 2 of #874
- focus on `TextBox[For]()` and `ValidationSummary()`
related fixes included here:
- `TextArea[For]()` documentation incorrectly indicated their `htmlAttributes` parameters were dictionaries
- handle `htmlAttributes` parameters more consistently; create a dictionary only when necessary
- no more `IHtmlHelper<object>` in `DefaultDisplayTemplates` and also no
need for `ViewDataDictionary<object>` in a few places
- mostly removals from `IHtmlHelper<TModel>` but did cleanup comments and
add `[NotNull]` for `DisplayFor()`, `DisplayNameFor()`,
`DisplayNameForInnerType()`, and `LabelFor()`
- also add `[NotNull]` for `this` and `Expression` parameters in some
extension methods
- add `CheckBox[For]()`, `Hidden[For]()`, `Password[For]()`, and
`RadioButton[For]()`
- also make `FormatValue()` visible to users, as it is in legacy MVC
- and spread the boxes out a bit in MyView 😺
