This PR adds views.settings.yml as a managed file. But as it is, when it comes in and drush config-distro-update is used, it will override any configuration that was previously there which is not ideal. It's possible that view settings were changed on a site, and those changes will be lost.

Example before update:

Example after update:

If possible, a database update or recipe that changes the one setting would be better.
