function EntityForm::afterBuild

Form element #after_build callback: Updates the entity with submitted data.

Updates the internal $this->entity object with submitted values when the form is being rebuilt (e.g. submitted via AJAX), so that subsequent processing (e.g. AJAX callbacks) can rely on it.
