class ViewsData in Drupal 9

Class to manage and lazy load cached views data.

If a table is requested and cannot be loaded from cache, all data is then requested from cache. A table-specific cache entry will then be created for the requested table based on this cached data. Table data is only rebuilt when no cache entry for all table data can be retrieved.
