\Drupal\Core\DefaultContent\Importer::setFieldValues should check if the field exists

I'm not sure we need this. The entity system will throw an \InvalidArgumentException, after all, if the field doesn't exist.

The only real benefit here is that we could throw a more clearly worded/contextualized ImportException. But that doesn't feel like core MVP material to me.

Agreed - let's leave this as an open issue but remove core-mvp.

My thinking was to catch and log it and continue, that way your don't have to update exported files if you've removed a field

I'd expect content entity validation to detect this?
