This PR adds the ability to configure Mongoose's `schemaOptions`, which exposes more control about how Mongoose operates internally. For example, you can now disable `strict` mode in Mongoose to be able to preserve / surface data in MongoDB that is not reflected in Payload schemas.

## Description
The stripe plugin documentation has an error in the forwarding URL for
local development (`/stripe/webhooks` instead of `/api/stripe/webhooks`)
Spent a day debugging my application because the URL in the docs is
wrong. Hoping to save others some time with this correction.

## Description
This changes allows empty strings (`''`) to be used as defaultValue for fields of types:
`'text'`; `'textarea'`; `'email'`; `'code'`. This can be useful when you
want to ensure the value is always a `string` instead of
`null`/`undefined`.
