Default value widget is not updated on field config change

Problem/Motivation

The default value widget in Field UI may depend on the field config that is being set on the same form. Regardless of this, the default value widget is not updated when these settings change. This leads to a confusing experience. For example, if you change the allowed bundles for an entity reference field, the default value widget still allows you to reference entities based on what was allowed on the saved field config, not what has been selected on the form.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Umami
  2. Create a new taxonomy term reference field
  3. Select "Tags" as the allowed vocabulary
  4. Set a default value and search for "Accompaniments" which is actually a "Recipe Category" and see that its still displayed
  5. Save, and see there's a form validation error
