 In [changeset:"42849"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="42849"
 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`.

 Merge of [42758] to the 4.9 branch.

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