function FileStorageSchema::getSharedTableFieldSchema
Gets the schema for a single field definition.
Entity types may override this method in order to optimize the generated schema for given field. While all optimizations that apply to a single field have to be added here, all cross-field optimizations should be via SqlContentEntityStorageSchema::getEntitySchema() instead; e.g., an index spanning multiple fields.
Parameters
\Drupal\Core\Field\FieldStorageDefinitionInterface $storage_definition: The storage definition of the field whose schema has to be returned.
string $table_name: The name of the table columns will be added to.
string[] $column_mapping: A mapping of field column names to database column names.
Return value
array The schema definition for the table with the following keys:
- fields: The schema definition for the each field columns.
 - indexes: The schema definition for the indexes.
 - unique keys: The schema definition for the unique keys.
 - foreign keys: The schema definition for the foreign keys.
