Form submission should not require a form to be dirty.

[Alex-BHN]

Current Behavior

Dirty is computed like this:

const dirty = !isEqual(this.initialValues, this.state.values);

Because of this and the decision to not allow not dirty forms to be submit, if a form isn't modified, it can't be submit.

Steps to Reproduce

Don't modify a form and attempt to submit it.

Expected behavior

An unmodified form should be able to be submit.

Suggested solution(s)

A flag to allow this possibility or removal of the restriction.

Additional context

Imagine a form with a single checkbox. The user should be able to submit this without modification.

const dirty = !isEqual(this.initialValues, this.state.values); is the definition of the dirty state.

But submitting a form without being dirty and touched is possible. There is no check for the dirty before an internal submit execution.

In version 0.11.11 you can also pass isInitialValid to tell formik the form is valid.

@Saifadin is correct. Form is always submitted when there are no errors.
