This pull request allows expansion of base fields on entities. In Drupal 8, base fields use the same field types as user-defined fields. E.g., a custom entity may define an entity reference field as a base field. Without this PR, there is no mechanism for expanding such fields.
Example usage:
This would expand the licensed_entity and user_id base fields using the EntityReferenceHandler class.
This pull request also documents a couple of undocumented parameters and fixes a bug that prevented user entity values from being expanded on entity reference fields.
