Problem/Motivation

A default setting should not be written to a config entity as this creates the impression that the config has changed when in fact it has not. For this module, that means do not write a third-party setting for the default 'public access' permission type. This is noted in comment 10 of #3110867: Remove unnecessary Third Party Settings limitations → . [The equivalent error was raised in numerous issues against 7x features and its implementors.]

Steps to reproduce

Export a field.
Install field_permissions.
Edit the same field and save it without making any changes.
Export the field and note the presence of third-party setting for public access.

Proposed resolution

Do not save a third-party setting for public access and unset same if permission type is changed to public.
