subdivision is always required, even when validators.Required unset

@mbehrle what do you think should be the default ?

1. core module makes the field required and downstream does not.
2. core module makes it optional and downstream modules which need it makes it required

I would prefer in any case 2, because there are really many countries (if not
all in Europe?), which don't require subdivision.

Of course the best way would be to have it configurable by country, so when you
are making deals with countries needing subdivision in the address format, it
would be required.

Even still better to only display field subdivision, when it is required.
