Pre-render callback for the preview element.

You might wonder why this rinky-dink bit of logic cannot be done in ::form(). The reason is that, under some circumstances, the renderable preview element will contain unserializable dependencies (like such as the database connection), which will produce a 500 error when trying to cache the form for AJAX purposes.

By putting this logic in a pre-render callback, we ensure that the unserializable preview element will only exist during the rendering stage, and thus never be serialized for caching.

Parameters

array $element: The preview element.

Return value

array The renderable preview element.
