[Meta] Deprecate text_with_summary

Created on 11 March 2024, over 1 year ago

Problem/Motivation

Conversation started in 🌱 Deprecate text_with_summary Closed: duplicate

How to deprecate it:

1. Switch standard + umami to using 'long text'
2. Change the body field to persist_with_no_fields: false so it can be deleted on sites that don't use it.
2. Move the field type, formatter and widget to a module
3. Deprecate the module and move it to contrib

This appears to already have the support of framework and product managers but need to plan out how to best go about it.

Currently the body field is a special field with a storage to use text_with_summary. Do we update that?
