Allow creation of validate_doc_update function in ViewDefinition

[GoogleCodeExporter]

In the current version of couchdb it is possible to define a
'validate_doc_update' function to validate the content of new/updated
documents [0]. It would be cool if python-couchdb's ViewDefinition would
have an optional parameter in the constructor like "validate_fun" which (if
set) creates a 'validate_doc_update' function for the view.

Thanks in advance,
Markus

I think that this feature could be followed by "update handlers"  which was 
implemented in couchdb since version 0.10 and up.
I will code some prototype around theese features.

thanks in advance,

Martin

Note that this shouldn't be added to ViewDefinition. The validate_doc_update 
function is nothing to do with a view, and actually exists as an attribute of 
the design doc.
