Validation feature

[joerghoh]

This is a feature request.

I would like to have an easy way to validate a set of YAML files for both syntactical validity and also for completeness, without always installing it to a running AEM instance.

Usecases

1. When I work on creating the configuration for the AC Tool, I want to be able to check easily that the syntax of this configuration can be consumed without error by the AC Tool.
2. When I work on creating the configuration for the AC Tool, I want to be able to check that my configuration does not have any external dependency; that means it does not rely on principals which are already on the system, but it is self-contained.

How to implement:

• It would be great if such a validation could be part of the overall build process, so implementing it as a maven plugin would be benefical.

That sounds similar to #211. PRs are highly welcome.

the syntax aspect: Yes.
