Description
Scenario 1;
Even though the field is configured to exclude - None - option, in classic UI, the report can be filtered with - None - value. In new UI, the - None - option isn't visible as expected
Issue can be reproduced with State field of Task table. It is configured as "Dropdown without -- None -- (must specify a default value)". In classic UI of a Task-table report, while filtering with 'State' field - None - can be selected.

Scenario 2;
When a field is configured as "Dropdown with -- None --" but if the choices gathered from another field configured as "Dropdown without -- None -- (must specify a default value)", new report UI doesn't show - None - option.
Issue can be reproduced with Problem state field of Problem table. This field is configured as "Dropdown with -- None --", and its choices are populated from State field of Task table (which is configured as "Dropdown without -- None -- (must specify a default value)"). In new UI of a Problem-table report, while filtering with 'Problem state' field - None - can't be selected.
