[Bug]: Rest Connection metadata - unwanted save dialog

[dave-csc]

Apache Hop version?

2.17.0

Java version?

17.0.2

Linux

What happened?

Steps to reproduce:

• open a previously configured Rest Connection metadata
• close the tab, without making any change to the parameters

You will be prompted to save the changes, even if there aren't been any. This doesn't occur with other types of metadata (e.g. Database connection)

Additional info - the dialog is also shown in the following scenario:

• open a previously configured Rest Connection metadata
• leave it open, without making any change to the parameters
• switch to another perspective (e.g. File Explorer)
• switch to another project/environment

In this case the Rest Connection metadata will still result open when you switch back to the previous project/environment, and you will be prompted again to save the connection
