Description

We should have functions that just do validation of objects. We could make it an option whether to create validators, serializers/deserializers, or both.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine how existing target languages are implemented in quicktype, then add a new option to generate validation functions (e.g., using library like zod or ajv) alongside or instead of type definitions.
