Subject: num_errors returns undef instead of 0
Apparently at one point it returned 0 because I had a test that checked for that. I think returning 0 after a successful validation makes sense, since undef implies that the value is unknown as opposed to there being no errors.

Actually, is suspect this may be the symptom of some larger breakage, because is_valid is returning false now for output that used to pass, but there are no actual errors in the validator. I suspect the W3C changed something in a way that broke this module.

In fact the whole /check endpoint is going away ... They want folks to use https://validator.w3.org/nu/ instead.
