/**
 * Interface for translatable data.

 * Classes implementing this interface do not necessarily support translations.
 *
 * To detect whether an entity type supports translation, call
 * EntityTypeInterface::isTranslatable().
 *
 * Many entity interfaces are composed of numerous other interfaces such as this
 * one, which allow implementations to pick and choose which features to support
 * through stub implementations of various interface methods. This means that
 * even if an entity class implements TranslatableInterface, it might only have
 * a stub implementation and not a functional one.
