Test the ConfigObj against a configspec.
It uses the ``validator`` object from *validate.py*.
To run ``validate`` on the current ConfigObj, call: ::
test = config.validate(validator)
(Normally having previously passed in the configspec when the ConfigObj
was created - you can dynamically assign a dictionary of checks to the
``configspec`` attribute of a section though).
It returns ``True`` if everything passes, or a dictionary of
pass/fails (True/False). If every member of a subsection passes, it
will just have the value ``True``. (It also returns ``False`` if all
members fail).
In addition, it converts the values from strings to their native
types if their checks pass (and ``stringify`` is set).
If ``preserve_errors`` is ``True`` (``False`` is default) then instead
of a marking a fail with a ``False``, it will preserve the actual
exception object. This can contain info about the reason for failure.
For example the ``VdtValueTooSmallError`` indicates that the value
supplied was too small. If a value (or section) is missing it will
still be marked as ``False``.
You must have the validate module to use ``preserve_errors=True``.
You can then use the ``flatten_errors`` function to turn your nested
results dictionary into a flattened list of failures - useful for
displaying meaningful error messages.
