Views RSS view mode settings are completely broken

Follow-up to #2409413: Remove fields that do nothing from the "RSS publishing" settings form →

Problem/Motivation

'title' is a special view mode hacked into the plugins. The default view mode 'rss' is provided by core but once you change the form you can never re-select. The teaser view mode might exist. The fulltext view mode almost certainly does not. I think we should fix all the view mode wonky-ness in another patch as it is likely to be hard. Basically, the whole view mode setting is currently very broken :(

    $form['feed_view_mode'] = array(
      '#type' => 'select',
      '#title' => t('Feed content'),
      '#default_value' => $this->config('system.rss')->get('items.view_mode'),
      '#options' => array(
        'title' => t('Titles only'),
        'teaser' => t('Titles plus teaser'),
        'fulltext' => t('Full text'),
      ),
      '#description' => t('Global setting for the default display of content items in each feed.')
    );

And the default value is RSS :(

Oh and the views are missing dependencies on the correct view mode if the default system view mode is used. What a mess.
