View name collision token_metadata

[ziwot]

This is really an edge case, but

having a view named "token_metadata" make a contract unreadable, crashing with a View name collision token_metadata error

made a simple reproduction there: https://github.com/der-alter/exp-collision

I'm running into this issue as well with https://packages.ligolang.org/package/ligo-generic-fa2.1 where the collision happens on balance_of, with latest release of PyTezos.

I think a fix would be to not make views accessible from the ContractInterface itself, since they're already available from the .views dict. I can give it a try if that works for you?

My bad, .views has objects of the ViewSection class. I'll change the name in the Ligo library, but changing the behaviour from PyTezos might be nice as well.
