bug#36037: Setting Koutliner view spec to <|benl1> and then back to <|ben> does not restore outline view

[Robert Weiner]

Handling viewspecs which lack a ‘c’ or a lowercase ‘l’ character is fixed for 
the next release of Hyperbole 7.0.4 such that these specs are set to their 
default values (initially set to 0, meaning all lines, levels) and the view is 
updated.

The bug can be closed if desired.
