 * Prepares variables for form element templates.
 *
 * Default template: form-element.html.twig.
 * Each form element is wrapped in a DIV container having the following CSS
 * classes:
 * - form-item: Generic for all form elements.
 * - form-type-#type: The internal element #type.
 * - form-item-#name: The internal form element #name (usually derived from the
 *   $form structure and set via form_builder()).
 * - form-disabled: Only set if the form element is #disabled.
 *
 * In addition to the element itself, the DIV contains a label for the element
 * based on the optional #title_display property, and an optional #description.
 *
 * The optional #title_display property can have these values:
 * - before: The label is output before the element. This is the default.
 *   The label includes the #title and the required marker, if #required.
 * - after: The label is output after the element. For example, this is used
 *   for radio and checkbox #type elements as set in system_element_info().
 *   If the #title is empty but the field is #required, the label will
 *   contain only the required marker.
 * - invisible: Labels are critical for screen readers to enable them to
 *   properly navigate through forms but can be visually distracting. This
 *   property hides the label for everyone except screen readers.
 * - attribute: Set the title attribute on the element to create a tooltip
 *   but output no label element. This is supported only for checkboxes
 *   and radios in
 *   \Drupal\Core\Render\Element\CompositeFormElementTrait::preRenderCompositeFormElement().
 *   It is used where a visual label is not needed, such as a table of
 *   checkboxes where the row and column provide the context. The tooltip will
 *   include the title and required marker.
 *
 * If the #title property is not set, then the label and any required marker
 * will not be output, regardless of the #title_display or #required values.
 * This can be useful in cases such as the password_confirm element, which
 * creates children elements that have their own labels and required markers,
 * but the parent element should have neither. Use this carefully because a
 * field without an associated label can cause accessibility challenges.
 *
 *   An associative array containing:
 *   - element: An associative array containing the properties of the element.
 *     Properties used: #title, #title_display, #description, #id, #required,
 *     #children, #type, #name.

 *
 * The API is primarily designed to integrate nicely with the Form API

 *   'file' => 'path_to_file_containing_myfunctions',
 * // Only needed if not inside a form _submit handler.
 * // Setting redirect in batch_process.
 * batch_process('node/1');
 * Note: if the batch 'title', 'init_message', 'progress_message', or
 * 'error_message' could contain any user input, it is the responsibility of
 * the code calling batch_set() to sanitize them first with a function like
 * \Drupal\Component\Utility\String::checkPlain() or
 * \Drupal\Component\Utility\Xss::filter(). Furthermore, if the batch operation
 * returns any user input in the 'results' or 'message' keys of $context, it
 * must also sanitize them first.
 * @code
 * // Simple and artificial: load a node of a given type for a given user

 * Adds a new batch.
 *
 * Batch operations are added as new batch sets. Batch sets are used to spread
 * processing (primarily, but not exclusively, forms processing) over several
 * page requests. This helps to ensure that the processing is not interrupted
 * due to PHP timeouts, while users are still able to receive feedback on the
 * progress of the ongoing operations. Combining related operations into
 * distinct batch sets provides clean code independence for each batch set,
 * ensuring that two or more batches, submitted independently, can be processed
 * without mutual interference. Each batch set may specify its own set of
 * operations and results, produce its own UI messages, and trigger its own
 * 'finished' callback. Batch sets are processed sequentially, with the progress
 * bar starting afresh for each new set.
 *
 * @param $batch_definition
 *   An associative array defining the batch, with the following elements (all
 *   are optional except as noted):
 *   - operations: (required) Array of operations to be performed, where each
 *     item is an array consisting of the name of an implementation of
 *     callback_batch_operation() and an array of parameter.
 *       array('callback_batch_operation_1', array($arg1)),
 *       array('callback_batch_operation_2', array($arg2_1, $arg2_2)),
 *   - title: A safe, translated string to use as the title for the progress
 *     page. Defaults to t('Processing').
 *   - init_message: Message displayed while the processing is initialized.
 *   - progress_message: Message displayed while processing the batch. Available
 *     placeholders are @current, @remaining, @total, @percentage, @estimate and
 *     @elapsed. Defaults to t('Completed @current of @total.').
 *   - error_message: Message displayed if an error occurred while processing
 *     the batch. Defaults to t('An error has occurred.').
 *   - finished: Name of an implementation of callback_batch_finished(). This is
 *     executed after the batch has completed. This should be used to perform
 *     any result massaging that may be needed, and possibly save data in
 *     $_SESSION for display after final page redirection.
 *   - file: Path to the file containing the definitions of the 'operations' and
 *     'finished' functions, for instance if they don't reside in the main
 *     .module file. The path should be relative to base_path(), and thus should
 *     be built using drupal_get_path().
 *   - css: Array of paths to CSS files to be used on the progress page.
 *   - url_options: options passed to url() when constructing redirect URLs for
 *     the batch.
 *   - safe_strings: Internal use only. Used to store and retrieve strings
 *     marked as safe between requests.
