+/**
+ * Validator for validating and normalizing objects against JSON schemas.
+ *
+ * **Intent:**
+ * The Validator class provides a comprehensive solution for validating objects against JSON schemas
+ * with built-in normalization, cleanup, and error handling capabilities. It serves as the primary
+ * interface for ensuring data integrity and consistency in applications that work with structured
+ * data, particularly in API endpoints, data transformation pipelines, and credential systems.
+ *
+ * The validator performs several key operations:
+ * - Validates objects against registered schemas using JSON Schema validation
+ * - Removes attributes not defined in the schema (cleanup)
+ * - Normalizes attribute types (e.g., string '1' → boolean true, string '180' → number 180)
+ * - Handles empty values by optionally nullifying them for non-required fields
+ * - Provides detailed validation errors with structured error information
+ *
+ * **Use Cases:**
+ *
+ * 1. **API Request/Response Validation:**
+ *    - Validate incoming API requests against defined schemas
+ *    - Ensure API responses conform to expected structure
+ *    - Clean up extra fields sent by clients
+ *    - Normalize data from query parameters or form submissions
+ *
+ * 2. **Data Integration & Third-Party Services:**
+ *    - Integrate with external APIs that send loosely-typed data
+ *    - Normalize data from URLs where types are strings (e.g., 'true', '1', '180')
+ *    - Clean up payloads before sending to third-party services (e.g., Telegram, webhooks)
+ *    - Handle data from systems that don't enforce strict typing
+ *
+ * 3. **Credential & Identity Systems:**
+ *    - Validate verifiable credentials against schema definitions
+ *    - Ensure credential subjects conform to expected schemas
+ *    - Normalize credential data from various sources
+ *
+ * 4. **Data Transformation Pipelines:**
+ *    - Normalize data types without full validation
+ *    - Clean up data structures before processing
+ *    - Transform data between different formats while maintaining schema compliance
+ *
+ * 5. **Form & User Input Processing:**
+ *    - Validate and normalize form submissions
+ *    - Handle empty values gracefully (nullify empty strings for optional fields)
+ *    - Clean up null values from nested objects
+ *
+ * **Example - Basic Validation:**
+ * ```typescript
+ * const userSchema = new Schema({
+ *   name: { type: 'string', required: true },
+ *   email: { type: 'string', format: 'email', required: true },
+ *   age: { type: 'number', minimum: 0 }
+ * }, 'User');
+ *
+ * const validator = new Validator([userSchema]);
+ *
+ * const validUser = validator.validate({
+ *   name: 'John Doe',
+ *   email: 'john@example.com',
+ *   age: 30
+ * }, 'User');
+ * // Returns: { name: 'John Doe', email: 'john@example.com', age: 30 }
+ * ```
+ *
+ * **Example - Normalization (String to Type Conversion):**
+ * ```typescript
+ * // Useful when receiving data from URLs or forms where types are strings
+ * const preferencesSchema = new Schema({
+ *   height: { type: 'number' },
+ *   isNotificationEnabled: { type: 'boolean' }
+ * }, 'Preferences');
+ *
+ * const validator = new Validator([preferencesSchema]);
+ *
+ * const normalized = validator.validate({
+ *   height: '180',              // String '180' → number 180
+ *   isNotificationEnabled: '1'  // String '1' → boolean true
+ * }, 'Preferences');
+ * // Returns: { height: 180, isNotificationEnabled: true }
+ * ```
+ *
+ * **Example - Cleanup (Remove Extra Attributes):**
+ * ```typescript
+ * const profileSchema = new Schema({
+ *   name: { type: 'string', required: true },
+ *   email: { type: 'string', required: true }
+ * }, 'Profile');
+ *
+ * const validator = new Validator([profileSchema]);
+ *
+ * const cleaned = validator.validate({
+ *   name: 'John',
+ *   email: 'john@example.com',
+ *   extraField: 'should be removed',
+ *   _internalId: 'should be removed'
+ * }, 'Profile', false, true);
+ * // Returns: { name: 'John', email: 'john@example.com' }
+ * // extraField and _internalId are removed
+ * ```
+ *
+ * **Example - Nullify Empty Values:**
+ * ```typescript
+ * const profileSchema = new Schema({
+ *   name: { type: 'string', required: true },
+ *   gender: { enum: ['Male', 'Female', 'Other'] },  // Optional
+ *   mobileNumber: { type: 'string', pattern: '^\\d+$' }  // Optional
+ * }, 'Profile');
+ *
+ * const validator = new Validator([profileSchema]);
+ *
+ * const result = validator.validate({
+ *   name: 'John',
+ *   gender: '',           // Empty string for optional enum
+ *   mobileNumber: ''      // Empty string for optional pattern field
+ * }, 'Profile', true);    // shouldNullifyEmptyValues = true
+ * // Returns: { name: 'John', gender: null, mobileNumber: null }
+ * // Empty values are converted to null for non-required fields
+ * ```
+ *
+ * **Example - Normalization Only (Without Validation):**
+ * ```typescript
+ * const preferencesSchema = new Schema({
+ *   height: { type: 'number' },
+ *   isNotificationEnabled: { type: 'boolean', default: false }
+ * }, 'Preferences');
+ *
+ * const validator = new Validator([preferencesSchema]);
+ *
+ * // Normalize without validation - useful for partial data
+ * const normalized = validator.normalize({
+ *   height: '180'
+ * }, 'Preferences');
+ * // Returns: { height: 180, isNotificationEnabled: false }
+ * // Applies normalization and defaults without validation
+ * ```
+ *
+ * **Example - Error Handling:**
+ * ```typescript
+ * const validator = new Validator([userSchema]);
+ *
+ * try {
+ *   validator.validate({
+ *     name: '',  // Empty required field
+ *     email: 'invalid-email'  // Invalid format
+ *   }, 'User');
+ * } catch (error) {
+ *   if (error instanceof ValidationError) {
+ *     const errorDetails = error.toJSON();
+ *     console.error(errorDetails.schemaId);  // 'User'
+ *     console.error(errorDetails.validationErrors);
+ *     // [
+ *     //   { path: '#/name', code: 'MIN_LENGTH', message: '...' },
+ *     //   { path: '#/email', code: 'INVALID_FORMAT', message: '...' }
+ *     // ]
+ *   }
+ * }
+ * ```
+ *
+ * **Example - Schema References:**
+ * ```typescript
+ * const addressSchema = new Schema({
+ *   street: { type: 'string', required: true },
+ *   city: { type: 'string', required: true }
+ * }, 'Address');
+ *
+ * const userSchema = new Schema({
+ *   name: { type: 'string', required: true },
+ *   address: { $ref: 'Address' }
+ * }, 'User');
+ *
+ * const validator = new Validator([addressSchema, userSchema]);
+ *
+ * // Get all schemas referenced by User schema
+ * const referencedIds = validator.getReferenceIds('User');
+ * // Returns: ['Address']
+ * ```
+ *
+ * **Example - Multiple Schemas:**
+ * ```typescript
+ * const statusSchema = new Schema({ enum: ['ACTIVE', 'INACTIVE'] }, 'Status');
+ * const profileSchema = new Schema({
+ *   name: { type: 'string', required: true },
+ *   status: { $ref: 'Status' }
+ * }, 'Profile');
+ *
+ * const validator = new Validator([statusSchema, profileSchema]);
+ *
+ * const result = validator.validate({
+ *   name: 'John',
+ *   status: 'ACTIVE'
+ * }, 'Profile');
+ * ```
