Update to latest views changes [#1264258]

In #1172970: provide a unified way to retrieve result entities a generic way for retrieving entity references has been implemented. This is especially useful for showing Rules Links in a Search API view (for example), which has its own back-end.
The changes to the Rules Link module should be pretty simple. First the entity type needs to be added to the field definition (in hook_views_data) and second the entity id needs to be retrieved in a different way in the render function, but you can see the changes in the patch anyway.

and here the patch to get Rules Link working with other back-ends (e.g. Search API).

patch needs #1270890: provide a way to provide entity-related views fields and #1291052: update provided views integration to match latest views as well

Forgot to mention that this patch breaks the existing rules link views fields, but we can wait and see how views handles the updates for the new node edit fields etc.

Since #1270890: provide a way to provide entity-related views fields went in, we can now push forward the rules link views integration. See attached an updated version of my patch with following changes:

added a moved to key in order to update existing views (didn't test it though)
fixed check for bundles (similar to #1312268: entity-link not displayed on user-view)
