public interface Errors
```
Stores and exposes information about data-binding and validation errors for a specific object.
Field names can be properties of the target object (e.g. "name" when binding to a customer object), or nested fields in case of subobjects (e.g. "address.street"). Supports subtree navigation via setNestedPath(String): for example, an AddressValidator validates "address", not being aware that this is a subobject of customer.
Note: Errors objects are single-threaded.
