/**
 * This validator checks the password against a policy named "passwordpolicy" from the validator configuration.
 * If no such entry is available, it validates that the password has a minimum of 6 and maximum of 30 chars, which
 * was the GateIn behavior before the introduction of this validator.
 *
 * The entries in the configuration file should look like this:
 * <pre>
 *      gatein.validators.passwordpolicy.length.min=5
 *      gatein.validators.passwordpolicy.length.max=50
 *      gatein.validators.passwordpolicy.regexp=...
 *      gatein.validators.passwordpolicy.format.message=Minimum 5 chars, max 50 chars, upper/lower case required, number required.
 * </pre>
