FieldableEntity should provide more code to help subclasses

I'm writing a custom migration source plugin for a Drupal 7 custom entity type.

I'm using FieldableEntity as the base class, but I am finding there's a lot of copy-pasting of code with just a few bits getting changed such as the entity ID, bundle field, ID field and so on.

For example, in most cases, prepareRow() could be handled in the base class with the addition of a few class properties to define the entity type ID, base table name, and id, vid, and bundle field names.

Given those class properties, the getIds() method could be handled in the base class too.
