content_moderation_entity_bundle_field_info overrides the target bundle setting on the field definition for all bundles

Problem/Motivation

I’ve been searching for something else when I’ve seen content_moderation_entity_bundle_field_info(). I think that there might be a potential bug, because it does not clone the base field definition when setting the target bundle. I think that this might lead to overriding the target bundle setting for every bundle, because you’re re-using the reference to the original base field and not creating an unique object for each bundle.

Requesting the bundle fields for multiple bundles of the same entity type in a single request should demonstrate the problem.

An example for the correct implementation is \Drupal\taxonomy\Entity\Term::bundleFieldDefinitions().

Proposed resolution

Would it be possible to switch to the new FieldDefinition class - https://www.drupal.org/node/2982512 → - and pass the base field definition to \Drupal\Core\Field\FieldDefinition::createFromFieldStorageDefinition()? This way we would not need to clone the base field anymore? I guess that we’ll also need an updated or a new CR describing this. Also to ensure no similar bugs occur we might start requiring from Drupal 9 that all objects returned by hook_entity_bundle_field_info() implementations are an instance of FieldDefinition and not BaseFieldDefinition.

hello, run into the same issue while working on 🐛 The "moderation_state" base field overrides cause install from existing config to fail Needs work . The idea is to move to bundle fields (as moderation_state is per bundle) ... and it kinda works (one failing test is due to change in the test entity ... )

But, I think the whole Bundle Fields API portion is ... not finished, and while it works from the UI, but config import/export does not work
