Validation , ability to add rules as array (patch attached)

[ae]

It would be handy to be able to pass validation rules as an array instead of function arguments.

So instead of:

$validation->add_rules('email', 'required', 'email', 'length[1,100]');

You could use:

$rules = array('required','email','length[1,100]);
$validation->add_rules('email',$rules);

This is useful if you are creating forms dynamically or are storing validation for fields in the db etc.

Why? Because you can use an array (as a callback) for a rule.
