Description
Previously, we were skipping processing any Nested Form's child components if there were no data provided for it (if the empty object was provided, it woould not skip though). That was causing an issue with submissions made through API that do not indlude data for the neste form, but must be still validated (because some fields of the child form are required, for example).
After discussion on the dev support we decide that the aussumptions that we can skip processing of nested form's child components if it has no data was wrong and we have to change it.
There are still some cases when we want to skip it: when the nested form's submission is saved as reference and its data is not attached (that means that the child form's data was already validated and saved to DB) or when the nested form itself should be hidden and cleared on hide.
