We want this change to avoid MVC eagerly reading the form. This is good
for general perf and also for scenarios where you want read the body
yourself (large file uploads).
We DO have scenarios where you want to configure the value providers
per-request or also to change the limits on the value providers (form) so
it's worth keeping these around on the context.
- #4116
- generalize rules for `ModelMetadata` creation; minimize metadata changes when Model is updated
- down to a single special case in VDD for `Nullable<T>`
- note existing functional tests did not need to change
- remove `ViewDataDictionary(ViewDataDictionary, object)` constructor; use `new VDD<object>(source, model)`
- allow all `Model` assignments in a view component
- copy-constructed VDD in `ViewComponentContext` previously preserved the source's declared type
nits:
- do not call `virtual SetModel()` method from constructor; now mostly redundant
- logic in copy constructor and `SetModel()` is consistent but different enough to keep code separate
- add some missing doc comments
- fix doc comment property versus type confusion; never need to specify `ViewDataDictionary.` prefix
- fix a few `TemplateBuilder` comments and remove unnecessary `model: null` argument to VDD constructor
This change separates model binding into IModelBinderProvider (decides
which binder to use) and IModelBinder (does binding). The
IModelBinderFactory is a new services with coordinates the creation of
model binders.
