When creating a view of Google Calendar Event entities, only the base fields are exposed to Views. Any custom fields added to the Event entity are missing. The attached patch fixes the issue.

I have had a look at this as part of my other changes, and am a bit confused, because almost all other content entities I could see do include the line that this patch removes. It therefore feels unsafe to apply the patch. If someone can explain why this change is correct I can review this again.

There's not a ton of documentation I can find on that specific annotation, but field_data generally refers to revisions, which aren't supported by the Google Calendar Event entity. Additionally, the referenced google_calendar_event_field_data table doesn't actually exist in the database.

You can reproduce this by adding a custom field to your Google Calendar Event entity, and then creating a view with a base table of Google Calendar Event. You won't be able to see your custom field in the fields list until you remove that line.
