Block forms are submitted prematurely

Postponed on โœจ Add #element_submit and #limit_element_submit just like #element_validate and #limit_validation_errors Needs work

Currently, $block->submitConfigurationForm($elements, $subform_state); is being called inside of Drupal\block_field\Plugin\Field\FieldWidgetBlockFieldWidget::massageFormValues(). Unfortunately, massageFormValues can be triggered by ajax commands, causing a block to be submitted multiple times prematurely. This can cause significant issues if the referenced blocks stores values in separate content/configuration because submit is fired before the parent entity is actually updated.

We should be able to circumvent this issue by utilizing '#element_submit' once it becomes available. The status of this new form property can be found here โœจ Add #element_submit and #limit_element_submit just like #element_validate and #limit_validation_errors Needs work .

I'm marking this postponed for the time being, unless someone knows how we could potentially fix this before the referenced issue is resolved.
