Summary
Resolves #32
Details and comments
This makes a local copy of the qiskit.utils validation.py and updates the code to use this. The test case is also switched to test this local instance not the one in Qiskit!
Since that file is only used by algorithms to raise errors, in a way that's consistent if these functions are used, and its all internal no release note is needed as there is no user facing change - a ValueError will still be raised as stated.
