OpenApiClientAction should not require optional fields

[novarx]

Citrus Version 4.2.1

Expected behavior Given an openapi endpoint And the response of the endpoint has the required fields: "category", "name", "status" And the response of the endpoint has the optional fields: "id", "photoUrls", "tags"

When a valid request is executed And the following json body is returned: { "category": {}, "name": "", "status": "sold" }

Then the test should pass green

Actual behavior The Test always fails with Number of entries is not equal in element: '$', expected '[photoUrls, name, id, category, tags, status]' but was '[name, category, status]'
