Method create_shared_view

atomic-repository/src/repository/views.rs:212–237

Create a new Shared view with no parent. Changes inserted into a Shared view go into the global `GRAPH` table and are permanently visible to all views. This is the correct scope to use for server-side push targets, where changes must be universally visible regardless of which run or request inserts them. Returns `ViewAlreadyExists` if the view already exists.
