Adds an "or" clause validator, a logical addition to check_and

I can't think of a good reason you would want this in a schema. is there a use case you had in mind?

kaidokert commented 10 months ago

Yes, in some cases accepting either a string or a list of strings for instance is perfectly okay.

cfgv tries to encourage schemas of structured data. what you're describing is not well structured and so I think it's best for you to use your own custom checkers on your own (and not something that's encouraged here)

thanks for the pr nonetheless!
