/**
 * Provides access to configuration for forms.
 *
 * This trait provides a config() method that returns override free and mutable
 * config objects if the configuration name is in the array returned by the
 * getEditableConfigNames() implementation.
 *
 * Forms that present configuration to the user have to take care not to save
 * configuration overrides to the stored configuration since overrides are often
 * environment specific. Default values of form elements should be obtained from
 * override free configuration objects. However, if a form reacts to
 * configuration in any way, for example sends an email to the system.site:mail
 * address, then it is important that the value comes from a configuration
 * object with overrides. Therefore, override free and editable configuration
 * objects are limited to those listed by the getEditableConfigNames() method.
