Form-validation using a Catalyst controller and Data::FormValidator

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use base 'Catalyst::Controller::FormValidator';
    use Data::FormValidator::Constraints qw(:closures);

    # define a DFV profile
    my $dfv_profile = {
        required => [qw<
            email_address
            phone_home
            phone_mobile
        >],

        constraint_methods => {
            email_address   => email(),
            phone_home      => american_phone(),
            phone_mobile    => american_phone(),
        },
    };

    # check the form for errors
    $c->forward('form_check', [$dfv_profile]);

    # perform custom/complex checking and
    # add to form validation failures
    if (not is_complex_test_ok()) {
        $c->forward(
            'add_form_invalid',
            [ $error_key, $error_constraint_name ]
        );
