/**
 * The default built-in validator error messages. These may be customized.
 *
 *     // customize within each schema or globally like so
 *     var mongoose = require('mongoose');
 *     mongoose.Error.messages.String.enum  = "Your custom message for {PATH}.";
 *
 * As you might have noticed, error messages support basic templating
 *
 * - `{PATH}` is replaced with the invalid document path
 * - `{VALUE}` is replaced with the invalid value
 * - `{TYPE}` is replaced with the validator type such as "regexp", "min", or "user defined"
 * - `{MIN}` is replaced with the declared min value for the Number.min validator
 * - `{MAX}` is replaced with the declared max value for the Number.max validator
 *
 * Click the "show code" link below to see all defaults.
 *
 * @property messages
 * @receiver MongooseError
 * @api public
