 * FieldDefinitionInterface) that is responsible for defining how the field is
 * stored. While field definitions may differ by entity bundle, all of those
 * bundle fields have to share the same common field storage definition. Thus,
 * the storage definitions can be defined by entity type only.
 * The bundle fields corresponding to a field storage definition may provide
 * additional information; e.g., they may provide bundle-specific settings or
 * constraints that are not present in the storage definition. However bundle
 * fields may not override or alter any information provided by the storage
 * definition except for the label and the description; e.g., any constraints
 * and settings on the storage definition must be present on the bundle field as
 * well.
