Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
If using custom properties that are classes, currently they are always fully shown in Tiled. You can click the small arrows to close the class and the subclass properties, but each time you go back to an object, they will have been re-opened. This can take up quite a lot of screen space, making scrolling or a constant closing of properties a cumbersome task.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
That classes/sub-classes remain closed when they do not have any values edited that differ from the default (as in when they get the bold text).

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Start by locating the Tiled editor logic that displays custom class properties, then check how edited values are distinguished from defaults. Done means class and subclass properties with only default values are closed when revisiting an object, while properties with differing values remain open.
