ViewResult and PartialViewResult classes are inconsistent

[ivaylokenov]

Currently, to get the model from a ViewResult, you have direct property .Model. On the other hand PartialViewResult does not have such property and to access the model, you need to write .ViewData?.Model. I believe both classes should be consistent in their public properties.

ViewResult and PartialViewResult in MVC 5 both have a Model property because they subclass ViewResultBase and the property lives there.

Yeah we could definitely add some more convenience properties. Should look at ViewComponentViewResult or whatever it's called as well.
