Dataview view containers change size on auto-reload

[fcskit]

What happened?

I use custom dataview view containers a lot in my notes to create renderings of my notes metadata. I like to have the auto-reload option activated so that changes of the metadata will be updated in the view. However, there is a catch. Dataview's auto-reload option updates the views in a fixed time interval even if the metadata has not changed. Performance wise this is not a big issue but the view containers change size while the content is updated. This causes the view of the current note to jump around, which is annoying when you edit the note.

Suggested fix
Do not updated the dataview view containers on every reload but only if the metadata of the file has been changed. I don't know if this is somehow directly supported by the obsidian api, but if not, although a little dirty, a deep comparison of the old and new metadata should probably do the trick.
