🐛 Bug Report: Updating Attributes with Null Default Fails
👟 Reproduction steps
When I update an attribute using Databases.update#Attribute and pass in null for xdefault,
👍 Expected behavior
It should set the default value of that attribute to null.
👎 Actual Behavior
It actually throws an exception: AppwriteException: general_argument_invalid, Param "default" is not optional. (400)
I've found that modifying https://github.com/appwrite/sdk-for-dart/blob/master/lib/src/client_mixin.dart#L15 to params.removeWhere((key, value) => value == null && key != 'default'); locally fixes the issue. Looks like the default: null header is being removed before sending the http request, which is causing the exception. This does not seem like a good fix for the issue, but it narrows down where the issue is coming from.

@estevez-dev @jaboyc sorry for the wait 🙏 team has been extrememly busy with the issues at hand, and will take a look at it
@jaboyc did you set the required attribute to true? if so then a default value as null is not allowed:
