/**
* In order to create relationships between reference fields, CER needs to know
* about what reference fields are available, and how to handle them, which is
* what this hook is for. It should always return an array, even if there are
* no fields to expose. The ultimate goal of this hook is to define a flattened
* hierarchy of all the reference-type fields that CER can use.
*
* A reference-type field is any type of field that can refer to an entity.
* This is pretty broadly defined: for example, CER considers field collections
* to be reference-type fields, since they refer to entities of the
* field_collection_item type. Even though the field collection may be displayed
* as an embedded part of its host entity, at heart it's still just a reference
* to an entity.
