 Quote from Andrea in #39045 :
 > There was a time when both were needed. Today, it's safe to use just
 required. Instead, aria-required is for custom, non-native, controls.
 Also, just stumbled upon a good feedback from Adrian Roselli:
 https://stackoverflow.com/a/37975985

 I found both `aria-required` and `required` attributes used in the
 following file:
 - `wp-admin/includes/media.php` L. 1672, 1674, 1849, 2756, 2763 and note
 also that it should use `required` instead of `aria-required` at L. 2772.
