What's the problem this PR addresses?
Depending on the order we traversed the dependency tree, it could happen that we'd see a package as optional before seeing the other cases where it was not optional. Because marking the package as "not optional" occurred after the "has this package been traversed before?" check, we were never updating its status from "optional" to "not optional".
Fixes #5827
How did you fix it?
We now check for optionality regardless of whether the package has been seen or not before. I added an order-dependent dragon test to try to prevent regressions.
