Throwing NodeApiError prevents subsequent nodes accessing the Schema validation messages

Hi

If some JSON fails validation against a the given Schema, you should not throw a NodeApiError as this stops the execution. Do data is passed onto the next node.

It would be best if this could pass the error out on an Error branch and not throw a 400

A subsequent node connected to the error branch could interrogate the "instancePath", "keyword", "message" etc, and handle the error.
This would be great when used in conjunction with Webhook nodes to validate POST bodies and return meaningful error responses.
