It should be possible to inject request component (like query params, form data, session, etc) into views.

Example:

from kupala.requests import QueryParams

def some_view(query: QueryParams):
  ...

Motivation
We can read the request body, files, load session, perform ACL checks before the view gets dispatched.

More examples

def view(user: CurrentUser): ... # can redirect to login page if user is not authenticated
def view(session: Session): ... # autoload session only for this view
def view(user: CurrentUser): ... # can redirect to login page if user is not authenticated
def view(api_token: ApiToken): ... # read API token from headers and pass to the view

Protocol

Any class defining from_request(request: Request) class method must be considered as request component.

A Routes.static should accept disk argument that points to a static files storage.

routes.static('/static', disk='statics')

Also it should support reading from packages (abstract loaders?)
