Problem/Motivation

If a field widget or formatter has settings or third_party_settings defined in the base config and removed in the split config it leads to a TypeError when importing config. For example:

TypeError: Drupal\Core\Field\FormatterBase::__construct(): Argument #4 ($settings) must be of type array, null given, called in /data/web/core/lib/Drupal/Core/Field/FormatterBase.php on line 78 in /data/web/core/lib/Drupal/Core/Field/FormatterBase.php on line 64 #0 /data/web/core/lib/Drupal/Core/Field/FormatterBase.php(78): Drupal\Core\Field\FormatterBase->__construct('my_basic_page_t...', Array, Object(Drupal\field\Entity\FieldConfig), NULL, 'hidden', 'default', Array)

Steps to reproduce

TBD

Proposed resolution

Instead of removing the entire section replace it with an empty array/object: { }

Remaining tasks

* Document steps to reproduce
* Failing test
* See if we can determine when the config key is mandatory
* Fix issue
