I'm not set up for working on d11 yet, but if you want to create the file here's what I think it should contain.

give_method: label: 'Give payment method' description: 'Enumerated fields extensible with a hook.' weight: 5

That last commit had a merge/rebase problem:

ParseError: syntax error, unexpected token "<<", expecting ")" in web/modules/contrib/give/src/Plugin/Field/FieldType/PaymentMethod.php).
