Subject: [PATCH] Comments: Remove unnecessary `aria-required` attribute from
 `comment_form()`, added with the function in [12810].

At the time, having both `required` and `aria-required` meant a wider range of support for browsers and assistive technology. Today, it's safe to use just `required`.

Props lakenh, afercia, davidakennedy, henry.wright.
Fixes #39045.
