Description: Checks whether any existing property's format element has changed from the previous specification.
Cause: This is considered a breaking change in most cases except widening integer("int32" -> "int64") in request and narrowing integer ("int64" -> "int32") in response which are not breaking change in new api-version.
Example: Property a of Parameter CreateParameters changed format from int64 to int32 in the new version.
