[Feature Request] Add option to set RootContextData

[pokorsky]

The FluentValidation allows to pass custom data as a dictionary to Validation call. It is possible by creating ValidationContext with RootContextData.

var person = new Person();
var context = new ValidationContext<Person>(person);
context.RootContextData["MyCustomData"] = "Test";
var validator = new PersonValidator();
validator.Validate(context);

The current FluentValidationValidator.Validate accepts only the options parameter. No way to pass the validation context.

I tried to build EditContext using ValidationContext but it did not work as EditContextFluentValidationExtensions.ValidateModel does not expect such an option and it always creates its own ValidationContext.

var context = new ValidationContext<Person>(person);
_editContext = new EditContext(context)

It would be great to extend API to allow to pass the ValidationContext the same way as validation options and support it in EditContextFluentValidationExtensions.ValidateModel.

Or did I miss something? Thanks
