Title: optimize validation.js performance

it a try to optimise the Joomla! form rendering with a lot inputs.
`validation.js` it third slow script after `chosen.js` and `bootstrap.tooltip` on the form page,

Here is some graphs.
test made with disabled `chosen.js` and `bootstrap.tooltip` on Global configuration page.

After fix:

As can see difference around 400ms on my PC in Chrome.

**How to test.**
Apply patch.
Go to global configuration, or other form where a lot inputs, and compare whether all still works and whether it "feels faster" :wink:
