  New Behat step for visiting a specific view

Bug description:
  While writing a Behat test that requires placing comments by anonymous
  users on a portfolio page, I realized there is no easy way to visit a
  portfolio page while you're logged out.

  For logged in users, I've been relying on the fact that the default
  Dashboard page includes the "latest views" block, which in normal test
  cases will show the small number of pages created for the test. But a
  logged-out user has no such dashboard. They need to get to the page
  directly by its URL. But we can't rely on the URL being the same every
  time because it contains an ID number, and MySQL doesn't reset the
  automatically assigned ID numbers back to 0 between each test.

  So, what we need is a step like this:

  Given I go to portfolio page "This is my page"

  The step can then look up the page's ID, and send you to the correct
  URL.
