Provide Validation API that does not use exceptions about hapi-fhir HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi Joe,

To be totally honest, the only reason it was designed like that is because the HAPI v2 API's validation library does it that way. I think you're right, there are lots of valid reasons not to repeat that mistake. If you wanted to create a pull request which replaces the exceptions with some sort of ValidationResult object I think it would make a lot of sense to merge.

That sounds good. Would you like me to keep the existing API and deprecate it or just modify it in place since we are pre-1.0?

I suppose keep and deprecate would be ideal. I've been trying to avoid too
many breaking changes without at least one release to adjust... :)

That's a good strategy. I'll put together a pull request tomorrow. Should be easy to change. Just a small change needed I think. Thanks.
