     *
     * @return array[]
     *   An associative array of field definitions keyed by field ID. Values are
     *   associative arrays with a structure that contains the field type ('type'
     *   key). The other keys are the field storage settings as they are returned
     *   by FieldStorageDefinitionInterface::getSettings().
     *
     *   Examples:
     *
     *   A composite source primary key that is defined by an integer and a string
     *   might look like this:
     *   @code
     *     return [
     *       'id' => [
     *         'type' => 'integer',
     *         'unsigned' => FALSE,
     *         'size' => 'big',
     *       ],
     *       'version' => [
     *         'type' => 'string',
     *         'max_length' => 64,
     *         'is_ascii' => TRUE,
     *       ],
     *     ];
     *   @endcode
     *
     *   If 'type' points to a field plugin with multiple columns and needs to
     *   refer to a column different than 'value', the key of that column will be
     *   appended as a suffix to the plugin name, separated by dot ('.'). Example:
     *   @code
     *     return [
     *       'format' => [
     *         'type' => 'text.format',
     *       ],
     *     ];
     *   @endcode
     *
     *   Additional custom keys/values that are not part of field storage
     *   definition can be added as shown below. The most common setting
     *   passed along to the ID definition is table 'alias', used by the SqlBase
     *   source plugin in order to distinguish between ambiguous column names -
     *   for example, when a SQL source query joins two tables with the same
     *   column names.
     *   @code
     *     return [
     *       'nid' => [
     *         'type' => 'integer',
     *         'alias' => 'n',
     *       ],
     *     ];
     *   @endcode
     *
     * @see \Drupal\Core\Field\FieldStorageDefinitionInterface::getSettings()
     * @see \Drupal\Core\Field\Plugin\Field\FieldType\IntegerItem
     * @see \Drupal\Core\Field\Plugin\Field\FieldType\StringItem
     * @see \Drupal\text\Plugin\Field\FieldType\TextItem
