feat: add @IsStrictlyOptional() decorator filtering only missing undefined values

[ehenon]

Description

As mentioned/discussed in some issues and PRs, proposal to add a new decorator based on the same philosophy as @IsOptional(), but filtering only values that are actually missing (=== undefined). Equivalent to @ValidateIf((o, v) => v !== undefined), but more direct and explicit.

I think it makes more sense to use this decorator in the way I suggested. My view of “optional” in a DTO is: if the property is not present in the request body, validation should be skipped; if it is present (even if null or undefined), validation should run.

Using propertyName in object achieves this behavior:

Property absent → skip validation

Property present → run validation

This way, the decorator better reflects the semantic meaning of “optional” and avoids the confusion of skipping validation only for undefined, which doesn’t fully cover real-world use cases.
