      Description

      Creating this Jira so that on the next AdWords API upgrade we make use of the validateOnly flag in the Google Content Editor.

      Some time ago, we implemented the validate behavior for ads and keywords because those were the only ones Google supported. Now it's a part of the AdWordsSession object so we should be able to validate other items, like campaigns, ad groups, and campaign targets.

      The validate behavior is useful because it allows us to see if there are any errors in our request before we actually send it. In GCE, we utilize this by stripping out of the "official" request any "bad" items.

      This would require the other *ChangeRequest.java classes to override BaseChangeRequest.validateRequest().
