better determine when to plan optional+computed #32551
Conversation
We can check if an object in state must have at least partially come from configuration, by seeing if the prior value has any non-null attributes which are not computed in the schema. This is used when the configuration contains a null optional+computed value, and we want to know if we should plan to send the null value or the prior state.

Should the comment on ll. 1992-1993 be removed?
"The entire prior nested value should be represented in the proposed new object if the configuration is null."

ooh, that's a good catch! The result is good, let me check that it's what we actually want at this point in the stack of PRs though (this was broken up from a single huge PR).

ok, this is the test I thought its was! updated the comment to describe the more accurate planning result.

In the common cases we cannot determine if a null optional+computed value in the configuration was previously set when the value also exists in the state. There is however one situation where we can determine if there was previously a configuration value, we can check if a complex object in state must have at least partially come from configuration by seeing if the prior value has any non-null attributes which are not computed in the schema.
