Get custom field contexts default values

Returns a paginated list of defaults for a custom field. The results can be filtered by contextId, otherwise all values are returned. If no defaults are set for a context, nothing is returned.

• CustomFieldContextSingleUserPickerDefaults (type single.user.select) for single users.
• CustomFieldContextDefaultValueMultiUserPicker (type multi.user.select) for user lists.
• CustomFieldContextDefaultValueSingleGroupPicker (type grouppicker.single) for single choice group pickers.
• CustomFieldContextDefaultValueMultipleGroupPicker (type grouppicker.multiple) for multiple choice group pickers.
