   ### Description
   
   This PR is a follow up of the discussion we had in the thread 
https://lists.apache.org/thread/qvb3kx78m7lvc21d90ld00v8o8wd27r.
   
   For changes in database `VIEW`s, currently, we have to look at the changes 
in the previous `schema` files and replicate the whole `CREATE VIEW` command in 
the current `schema` file, modifying what we need (adding/removing columns, and 
so on). This process makes the changes in a `VIEW` to be distributed through 
several files, increasing the number of lines modified for simple changes 
(e.g.: for adding a single field to the `VIEW` result we need to replicate the 
whole command); thus, making it difficult to maintain and track.
   
   With that in mind, the proposal is to, instead of adding the `VIEW` changes 
to the  `schema` files, we manage them in a separated file (or several files). 
That would allow us to easily track `VIEW` modifications, as we would just 
change the `VIEW` declaration in the same file, instead of re-declaring the 
whole `VIEW` in a different file; and we would have a better history of the 
changes. Also, we would not need to migrate all `VIEW`s right away; we could 
migrate as we change them (I already created some files according to what was 
changed in 4.18).
