- adds converters between genetic formats as configured by gen-config.h,
- validation of genotypes by dedicated genetic operators, or by conversion to f0 if no genetic operator is found that can validate a genotype.

        Geno::addValidator(&genman); //primary validation: use the extended validity checking (through dedicated genetic operators)
        Geno::addValidator(&model_validator); //secondary validation: this simple validator handles all cases when there is no dedicated genetic validation operator, but a converter for a particular format is available. Converters may be less strict in detecting invalid genotypes but using them and checking whether they produced a valid f0 genotype is also some way to tell whether the initial genotype was valid. Otherwise, without dedicated genetic validation operator, we would have no validity check at all.
