A dedicated full view template breaks the circular reference the module result would otherwise produce.

• 2026-09-22 6ec73b2 (fix) Fixed: Fixed the module views declaring functions and classes at the top level, so this extension can be served by a web server that keeps a PHP process alive across requests. Release v1.3.0.
