Fix 4357 - Properly catch and throw the error encountered while compiling bad schema

Fixed #4357 by properly catching the error caused by trying to compile a bad schema in the validator
- Updated `validator.ts` to move the `this.ajv.getSchema()` call inside of the try/catch to deal with bad schemas properly
- Updated the `RawValidatorTest.tsx` component to add a replacer function to the `JSON.stringify()` function to properly output the `validationError`
- Updated `CHANGELOG.md` accordingly
