It is non-intuitive for people to adjust the way the title behaves on the "Configure" page for content types when all the other fields are managed via Manage fields and Manage display. We should move these settings over to where people expect to find them, using hook_field_extra_fields() in the node module.

  1. Everything in the Submission form settings tab should be moved to Manage fields
    • The Title field label options should be handled the same way as other field titles (edit button, with inner label field)
    • The Explanation or submission guidelines should also be moved, perhaps to the top of the list
  2. A new option should be added to the Manage display tab to show or hide the title.

(also, I thought we had an issue for this already, but perhaps I am thinking of the Drupal issue I created years ago: https://www.drupal.org/node/1513054)
