Currently the mat-checkbox required validator defines a host binding
that adds the "required" attribute to the mat-checkbox host element.

This is not necessary as the required attribute should be only added
to the underlying input element (which is handled as part of the checkbox
template).

This unnecessary host binding seems to have been added by
accident since the CheckboxRequiredValidator from @angular/forms
has the same host binding. Through the difference is that the
CheckboxRequiredValidator from @angular/forms is guaranteed
to have native input elements as host element.

Currently the `mat-checkbox` required validator defines a host binding
that adds the "required" attribute to the `mat-checkbox` host element.
