Summary:
Additional form template values: has_required_fields & required_symbol
Detailed Description:
It would be handy to have a form template value that can flag if the form has
any required fields.

This would allow us to optionally display a message lik '* marked requires
fields' if there are required fields in the form. Otherwise, the message can be
hidden if not relevant.

A global required_symbol field would be useful too. 

We could use these values like so:

{if $has_required_fields}
   <p>{$required_symbol} marks required fields.</p>
{/if}

Cheers!

You can use {$entry->required_symbol} in your templates. To check if any field
is set to required use something like:

{assign var="required" value=0}
{foreach from=$fields item=entry}

// all form output

{if $entry->required == 1}{assign var="required" value=1}{/if}
{/foreach}

{if $required == 1}{$entry->required_symbol} marks requires fields{/if}
