     * Calculates dependencies for the configured plugin.
     *
     * Dependencies are saved in the plugin's configuration entity and are used to
     * determine configuration synchronization order. For example, if the plugin
     * integrates with specific user roles, this method should return an array of
     * dependencies listing the specified roles.
     *
     * @return array
     *   An array of dependencies grouped by type (config, content, module,
     *   theme). For example:
     *   @code
     *   array(
     *     'config' => array('user.role.anonymous', 'user.role.authenticated'),
     *     'content' => array('node:article:f0a189e6-55fb-47fb-8005-5bef81c44d6d'),
     *     'module' => array('node', 'user'),
     *     'theme' => array('seven'),
     *   );
     *   @endcode
     *
     * @see \Drupal\Core\Config\Entity\ConfigDependencyManager
     * @see \Drupal\Core\Entity\EntityInterface::getConfigDependencyName()
