Fix constructor arguments to be compatible with the original `CI_Form_validation` constructor and pass on any arguments given. I won't pretend to the know the reason now, but if you don't do this, then the validation rules you set in a global config file as described in https://ellislab.com/codeIgniter/user-guide/libraries/form_validation.html aren't used.

Adding this change allowed me to use validation rules that are defined in a global configuration file as described in https://ellislab.com/codeIgniter/user-guide/libraries/form_validation.html. I'm not sure if the absence of the argument is intentional, but I feel matching the call signature of a class that is inherited from is a good thing overall.
