Subject: [PATCH] Make `Config` completely optional for plugins (#9502)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

* Make `Config` completely optional for plugins

Right now the `Config` type requires a `content` key. However, for plugins, this should be completely optional. There’s little reason for a plugin to override content. All other keys are already optional by virtue of using `Partial<…>` so we’ll do the same for the `Config` type used by plugins.

* Update changelog
