Problem/Motivation

We need to pass variables to the form state arguments to initialize fields on an add message form. So if a message has a reference field pointing to a node, we want to pass that node id into the form state arguments so that the reference field value can by initialized in `hook_entity_prepare_form()`. This requires taking an optional parameter in MessageController->add() to pass the field for programmatically created forms.

Additionally, as more applications override form modes, it is useful to allow an optional parameter to alter the form mode ($operation).

Proposed resolution

Patch included. This patch should not affect site builders. It may affect developers who have extended MessageController class and overriden the add() method.

API changes

MessageController->add() will add two new function parameters, both optional with default values.
