Set-MgUserLicense optimizes out necessary empty parameters #3273
Description
Describe the bug
I hope the titel is alright, please tell me if I should change it if it is unclear.
When running the command Set-MgUserLicense -UserId "[email protected]" -RemoveLicenses @("b70a4eeb-32f6-4c99-af47-3c822a4bbc59") -AddLicenses @() as described for example in Example 6 in the MS docs, the Graph SDK detects that -AddLicenses @() is essentially empty and omits it from the HTTP request. However, the Microsoft Graph API requires that AddLicenses is present even though it is empty. The same behavior can be reproduced with RemoveLicenses
Example:
Set-MgUserLicense -UserId "[email protected]" -RemoveLicenses @() -AddLicenses @() -Debug results in

. The command Set-MgGroupLicense has the exact same issue. I am using Graph SDK 2.26.1.
Expected behavior
The SDK should neither omit AddLicenses, nor RemoveLicenses
