New Features

• New length rule added to the Registry. This rule checks that the length of a data field is exactly equal to the value specified by the length schema field. This removes the need to specify both a min_length and max_length with the same value when enforcing an exact length.
• New length_and_min_length and length_and_max_length cross rules added to the Registry. These rules check that the min_length and max_length rules are not specified when a length rule is present.
• The coerce rule now accepts functions with multiple arguments when passed directly to a Schema or Validator, allowing base as.*() functions to be used as coerce rules in schema definitions. However, only the field value is passed to the function; any additional arguments are ignored. Functions with multiple arguments still cannot be added to the Registry@coerce_map, as add_coerce_rule() enforces a strict one-argument function signature.

Bug fixes

• Fixed the allowed_type_mismatch and forbidden_type_mismatch cross rules so that they use the Registry@type_map to obtain the function used for type checking when type is a string, and use the supplied function directly when type is a function. Previously, function-valued type fields caused an error, while character-valued type fields could result in incorrect type checking because the class of the allowed/forbidden field was compared directly with the type field. This could produce false positives, such as an integer allowed/forbidden field being flagged as a type mismatch when type was "numeric".
• Fixed incorrect argument-count checking for the type, predicate, and apply rules.
