Split up event validation between event and builder

The validator was being run on the EventBuilder objects, and so the
validator only checked a subset of fields. With the upcoming
EventBuilder refactor even fewer fields will be there to validate.

To get around this we split the validation into those that can be run
against an EventBuilder and those run against a fully fledged event.
