Visiting a file from an archive activates view-mode even when its major
mode has the property `mode-class' equal to `special'.  For instance,
visiting a .jar archive from .xpi archives or from .tar archives.
(See also bug#4896 for more information.)

This patch takes into account the special mode-class property
and doesn't activate view-mode in this case:

Then at least move it to a new view-buffer-1 function.
But please don't introduce such code duplication.

I think all `view-buffer' calls should respect the property `mode-class',
so I moved this code from `view-file' to `view-buffer'.  `view-buffer-1'
is a new function with the old content of `view-buffer' for the case when
some package would prefer to ignore `mode-class' for some reasons.

I hesitate to install this patch now because it changes the behavior of
`view-file' for a non-critical bug.

Indeed, in this form I don't think it's acceptable for `trunk'.
If you switch the names around, OTOH it should be safe.

I think in the long run the correct behavior of `view-buffer' should be to
check `mode-class'.  Instead of switching the behavior after the release,
we could wait and install the final version of `view-buffer' (that checks for
`mode-class') after feature freeze (or install now to the `pending' branch).

Fine by me,
