Optional flag for yaml files is not obeyed
When trying to add an optional YamlSource where the given yaml file does not exist, the following error is raised:

```expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not NoneType```

It appears the YamlSource load method is checking if the source is required or not to raise a runtime error. It correctly skips raising the error but still tries to read the file using open().  This results in the TypeError.

```python
    def load(self, fact: IConfigFactory, conf: IConfigSection) -> dict:
        path = self.__get_first_existing_path()
        if path is None and self.__required:
