proutes shows <unknown> for views added with context

[drnextgis]

In case when add_view is called with context parameter proutes shows view as <unknown>. See detailed example here.

Name           Pattern         View         Method    
----           -------         ----         ------    
dummy.route    /dummy/route    <unknown>    *

Linked Stack Overflow issue says this was an issue with understanding the proutes output.

If proutes shows distinct records for different http methods, wouldn't it make sense to do the same for context?

I think that from Pyramid's perspective the matching view here really is "unknown" and not inaccurate. However, I think the code in proutes could potentially be doing more work to provide useful output.

For example, while the "View" is unknown, it is known which views could potentially be invoked, assuming use_global_views is False. It seems reasonable to provide a way to see those views and their predicate values if anyone wanted to get into those details. Right now it's only showing the request method predicate, and it could be extended to show a lot more.
