SavedView

Saved filter/column preset for a ListView.

Indie mode: created by users via Desk UI, stored in DB.
Enterprise mode: defined in TOML/YAML fixture files under saved_views/
shipped with the app, resolved by VirtualSavedViewResolver.
DB record always wins over a virtual fixture (tenant override pattern).
