Validation should be pluggable

[gevou]

Built-in validators in validators.js have been built based on a previous version of the Forms API which passed all the parameters to a validator function as a single context object. (see line 1 of validators.js)

They should be updated in order to reflect the new API and allow the following usage syntax within a schema:
carType: Forms.validators.oneOf([ 'sport', 'sedan', ... ])

Also, the forms validation api should be updated to pass in more
information (e.g. the form instance, the document, etc.)

Let's take this in the direction of while we provide a set of validations (that we can separate into another package), let's make a flexible enough api for people to easily plug in their own validation, or at least easily create a connector between something like Astronomy's validations and the forms api so they can choose how to validate without again writing a lot of duplicate validations or boilerplate.

any updates on validation? Or some tips how to roll my own? maybe with the {{error}}
