Creating a dependency for an element marked as "required" does not remove the element from the array of required fields

[ssmithereens]

If you create a form with elements newInput1 and newInput2 (both with input type short answer) and mark newInput2 as a required field, the resulting schema is:

{ type: 'object', properties: { newInput1: { title: 'New Input 1', type: 'string' }, newInput2: { title: 'New Input 2', type: 'string' } }, dependencies: {}, required: [ 'newInput2' ] }

If you then create a dependency for newInput1 so that if it shows newInput2 if newInput1 has any value, the following schema is produced:

{ type: 'object', properties: { newInput1: { title: 'New Input 1', type: 'string' } }, dependencies: { newInput1: { properties: { newInput2: { title: 'New Input 2', type: 'string' } }, required: [ 'newInput2' ] } }, required: [ 'newInput2' ] }

newInput2 is incorrectly still set as a required field in the parent required fields array, which means that the form can't be successfully submitted by the user. The validation error '.newInput2 is a required property' is triggered, even though newInput2 is only conditionally shown if newInput1 has a value.

Expected behaviour: newInput2 should be removed from the parent required fields array, since it is a dependent field.
