Load entity only if user selects - Use entity render in view field or create new view field level settings

Thanks for suggesting this improvement, and sorry it took me so long to get back to you!
You linked #3179643: Empty field leads to full entity load → . Did the patch committed there resolve the problem for you?

Also, please don’t set issues to “Critical” simply because they affect you, and please don’t use MRs in this project as automated testing doesn’t work for them (cf. #3190024: Problem with test dependencies when testing issue forks → ).

@drunken monkey I believe a better option should be to rely on the view field rendering options if it's enabled then only try to read the data from Drupal entities. Can you please review above and patch/MR and approve to get this merged?
