Move Form Builder Plugin To Monorepo

[jacobsfletch]

As we move the Form Builder Plugin to the Payload Monorepo, we need a place to consolidate any open issues from the old plugin repo that are not technically bugs. All other issues will be transferred to the Payload monorepo as expected with the label plugin: form-builder. This discussion will act a place to document this process and ensure no work is lost.

I'll go into greater detail into each one of these as soon as possible.

Features:

• Add an upload field
• Support multi-select. Here's a proof of concept.
• Wire up submission validations. See PRs below.
• Support custom defaultColumns for Form Submissions collection
• Grouped fields
• Hidden fields

Doc changes:

• Add documentation about how to create form submissions
• Add docmentation for front-end implementation

Minor fixes:

• Require slug in Partial<Block> type. Here's a work in progress.
• Safely fail variables.find

PRs:

• Docker
• Server-side validations

Open issues that have been (or will be) transferred into the Payload Monorepo (I will link to the exact issues as they are opened):

• Localized title. Open issue plugin-form-builder: Add localized property to form title #4470.
• Form ID validation. Open issue plugin-form-builder: FormID validation #4471.
• Handle payment method differs from docs. Open issue plugin-form-builder: handlePayment function return differs from docs #4472.
• Type error when adding fields to existing block. Open issue plugin-form-builder: Type error when adding fields to existing blocks #4473.
• Localized email. Open issue plugin-form-builder: the email sent is not localised #4474.
• Support Lexical RTE. Open issue Form Builder: Support lexical #4475.
• 2.0 peer deps. Open issue plugin-form-builder: Compatibility with Payload 2.0 #4476.

All other open issues from this repo have been (or will be) closed. All new issues and PRs can be made directly in the Payload Monorepo.

Feel free to leave a comment below with new feature requests, and I'll add them to this list!
