2229	Provide a 'base()' member for adapted views or locators.	john.femiani@…	Stefan Seefeld	"I would like the result of `typename View::template add_deref<fn>::type` to include a member function `View& base()`, much like the iterator adapters currently do (and std::reverse_iterator).

Imagine I have an rgb-to-hsv converted view, and then  want to convert it back to rgb. All I should have to do is call `base()`

The actual use case: I have a deref function that exposes a reference to the element in a gray pixel. I also have a function that takes a view to regular types and creates an adapted view to gray pixels with that element type. 

I want to be ample to write them so that: `same_types(make_pixel(remove_pixel(T)), T)`
