Summary of Changes

The AbstractView::$document property is deprecated and should not be directly accessed anymore. Instead you should use AbstractView::getDocument() and AbstractView::setDocument() instead. This PR removes the last cases where AbstractView::$document was accessed directly and makes the property itself private, so that only AbstractView::getDocument() and AbstractView::setDocument() can access it anymore. This is a b/c break, which is why this is done in 6.0.

Testing Instructions

Check that the following views are still displaying correctly:

  • Tracks view in Banner component in backend
  • Any view of the category component, installer component joomlaupdate component and privacy component in the backend
  • The MFA method and methods view and the MFA login in the user component in the backend
  • Templates view of com_config in the frontend
  • Any of the com_users views in the frontend, for example registration

In each case it should behave exactly identical between before and after applying the patch.
