Reverse on SequenceView throws StackOverFlowError

[scabug]

As summarized above, calling reverse on a SequenceView throws a StackOverFlowError. Example:

scala> List(1,2,3,4,5,6).view.reverse
java.lang.StackOverflowError

I would need advice on how to deal with this. I'm finding the coupling between X, XLike, and XView blocks any interesting change I attempt to make.

(In r20288) fixed #2548 - reverse, reverseIterator for views bug. Also - reverseMap for views now should work.
