Issue:
When trying to import a yaml with config as code, if that yml code has nested views then it will fail due to a Null pointer
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a view with nested views
2. Export that config as code yaml
3. Import the yaml and observe the null pointer
The error:

The cause:
This is the code which causes the issue and it appears that the owner while doing an import does not exist.
The fix:
I think we should do a check there for "if no owner then the owner should be the default Jenkins instance.
Thoughts?
