Alter default views defined by other modules.

This hook is called right before all default views are cached to the database. It takes a keyed array of views by reference.

Example usage to add a field to a view:

  $handler =& $view->display['DISPLAY_ID']->handler;
  // Add the user name field to the view.
  $handler->display->display_options['fields']['name']['id'] = 'name';
  $handler->display->display_options['fields']['name']['table'] = 'users';
  $handler->display->display_options['fields']['name']['field'] = 'name';
  $handler->display->display_options['fields']['name']['label'] = 'Author';
  $handler->display->display_options['fields']['name']['link_to_user'] = 1;
