Description

I'm working on https://github.com/Azure/azure-rest-api-specs-pr/pull/15631 and there are some `required` differences reported between the old API version and the generated from TypeSpec version regarding `properties`. The errors are not very accurate. They should say what required values changes. Many look to be false positives.

``` nushell
~/ms/azure-rest-api-specs-pr> open breaking-changes.json | where code == RequiredStatusChange | select message old.path | to md
```

Research direction

Start by reproducing the RequiredStatusChange entries shown in breaking-changes.json through the openapi-diff command-line tool, then trace the comparison logic that produces those messages. Done means the reported required-value changes are accurate and the listed false positives no longer appear.
