Evaluator should allow for exposing errors

[paulfalgout]

I realize that the evaluate function appears to be trying to give context to where errors are occurring which is nice, but because they're all console.warn we aren't getting logs on our error services. And I don't want to override warn because some things are legitimately warnings.

I would actually prefer that an error is always an error, but perhaps this could be done with a flag like Evaluator.noEval that would do something like: Evaluator.warnOnError ? console.warn(...) : console.error(...);

For the moment my solution is to:

const evaluator = Formio.Evaluator.evaluator;
Formio.Evaluator.evaluator = function(func, ...params) {
  try {
    return evaluator(func, ...params);
  } catch (e) {
    console.error(e);
  }
};

So if it is still relevant is there any real point to reopening it, or will the issue go unaddressed and closed in a couple of years?
