Providing defaults for API parameters where the API already provides defaults leads to some confusing scenarios, because we end up always sending those collection-defaulted fields in the request even if the field isn't provided by the user. For example, we previously set the `scm_type` default to 'manual' and someone using the collection to update a project who does not explicitly include the `scm_type` every time they call the module, would inadvertently change the `scm_type` of the project back to 'manual' which is surprising behavior. This change removes the collection defaults for API parameters, unless they differed from the API default. We let the API handle the defaults or otherwise ignore fields not given by the user so that the user does not end up changing unexpected fields when they use a module.

Contributing
- Refer to the Contributing guide to get started developing, testing, and building AWX.
- All code submissions are made through pull requests against the
develbranch. - All contributors must use git commit --signoff for any commit to be merged and agree that usage of --signoff constitutes agreement with the terms of DCO 1.1
- Take care to make sure no merge commits are in the submission, and use
git rebasevs.git mergefor this reason. - If submitting a large code change, it's a good idea to join the
#ansible-awxchannel on web.libera.chat and talk about what you would like to do or add first. This not only helps everyone know what's going on, but it also helps save time and effort if the community decides some changes are needed.
