Rename this project

The name has been read as meaning “provide the minimal amount of validation”. What should we rename it to? Put new suggestions in a comment by themselves and folks can vote with reactions.

Some things to keep in mind:

• There are currently two packages. The basic package containing the static TryValidate method, and the .AspNetCore package containing the Validator<T> class, which has a static BindAsync method so that RequestDelegateFactory will bind to it. The first package is generally usable in all .NET projects where System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations validation can be used so the name should be welcoming to that, while also providing a suitable prefix for the more workload-specific package(s).
• The main call site in any project will be the call to ProjectName.TryValidate(), i.e. a static method on a static class. Right now the class is in the System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations namespace, the same as the in-framework Validator type. Note that the fact the framework has a Validator type already is why this project doesn’t use that name 😞 .
