  /**
   * `Use Polymer.IronValidatableBehavior` to implement an element that validates user input.
   * Use the related `Polymer.IronValidatorBehavior` to add custom validation logic to an iron-input.
   *
   * By default, an `<iron-form>` element validates its fields when the user presses the submit button.
   * To validate a form imperatively, call the form's `validate()` method, which in turn will
   * call `validate()` on all its children. By using `Polymer.IronValidatableBehavior`, your
   * custom element will get a public `validate()`, which
   * will return the validity of the element, and a corresponding `invalid` attribute,
   * which can be used for styling.
   *
   * To implement the custom validation logic of your element, you must override
   * the protected `_getValidity()` method of this behaviour, rather than `validate()`.
   * See [this](https://github.com/PolymerElements/iron-form/blob/master/demo/simple-element.html)
   * for an example.
   *
   * ### Accessibility
   *
   * Changing the `invalid` property, either manually or by calling `validate()` will update the
   * `aria-invalid` attribute.
   *
