Hi all, I am merging [SMTK MR 1607](https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmb/smtk/merge_requests/1607) that splits `qtBaseView` into `qtBaseView` and `qtBaseAttributeView`. This is a first step toward having the resource panel and potentially the operation panel inherit qtBaseView, which would in turn allow their configuration via the same `smtk::view::View` class that the attribute views use.
