Interface definition for field widget plugins.
This interface details the methods that most plugin implementations will want to override. See Drupal\Core\Field\WidgetBaseInterface for base wrapping methods that should most likely be inherited directly from Drupal\Core\Field\WidgetBase..

/**
* Returns the form for a single field widget.
*
* Field widget form elements should be based on the passed-in $element, which
* contains the base form element properties derived from the field
* configuration.
*
* The BaseWidget methods will set the weight, field name and delta values for
* each form element. If there are multiple values for this field, the
* formElement() method will be called as many times as needed.
*
* Other modules may alter the form element provided by this function using
* hook_field_widget_form_alter() or
* hook_field_widget_WIDGET_TYPE_form_alter().
*
* The FAPI element callbacks (such as #process, #element_validate,
* #value_callback, etc.) used by the widget do not have access to the
* original $field_definition passed to the widget's constructor. Therefore,
* if any information is needed from that definition by those callbacks, the
* widget implementing this method, or a
* hook_field_widget[_WIDGET_TYPE]_form_alter() implementation, must extract
* the needed properties from the field definition and set them as ad-hoc
* $element['#custom'] properties, for later use by its element callbacks.
*
* @param \Drupal\Core\Field\FieldItemListInterface $items
* Array of default values for this field.
* @param int $delta
* The order of this item in the array of sub-elements (0, 1, 2, etc.).
* @param array $element
* A form element array containing basic properties for the widget:
* - #field_parents: The 'parents' space for the field in the form. Most
* widgets can simply overlook this property. This identifies the
* location where the field values are placed within
* $form_state->getValues(), and is used to access processing
* information for the field through the getWidgetState() and
* setWidgetState() methods.
* - #title: The sanitized element label for the field, ready for output.
* - #description: The sanitized element description for the field, ready
* for output.
* - #required: A Boolean indicating whether the element value is required;
* for required multiple value fields, only the first widget's values are
* required.
* - #delta: The order of this item in the array of sub-elements; see $delta
* above.
* @param array $form
* The form structure where widgets are being attached to. This might be a
* full form structure, or a sub-element of a larger form.
* @param \Drupal\Core\Form\FormStateInterface $form_state
* The current state of the form.
*
* @return array
* The form elements for a single widget for this field.
*
* @see hook_field_widget_form_alter()
* @see hook_field_widget_WIDGET_TYPE_form_alter()

* Depending on the widget's internal structure, a field-level validation
* error needs to be flagged on the right sub-element.
*
* @param array $element
* An array containing the form element for the widget, as generated by
* formElement().
* @param \Symfony\Component\Validator\ConstraintViolationInterface $violation
* A constraint violation reported during the validation phase.
* @param array $form
* The form structure where field elements are attached to. This might be a
