Let "error" replication document updates bypass the VDU function.
This is necessary in the case where an software upgrade happens with
a more restrictive VDU function. Replicator db might end up having documents
which would not pass validation anymore, leading to a replicator manager
crash when it updates the document with an "error" state.
So in case of an "error" state allow malformed document so the user can
see the error.

> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Nick Vatamaniuc
>
> In case when code is updated from an older version of couchdb which didn't
> have (or had a less restrictive) VDU function. A malformed document could
> have ended up in the _replicator database.
> Replicator will try to parse it and flag it as an error then try to update
> the document. However the more restrictive VDU function will cause the
> document update to crash the replicator manager.
