 * Submits the given `action` by making an HTTP request according to `action`'s
 * `method` and `href`.
 *
 * If `fields` are present in `action`, they are validated via
 * `options.validator`. A {@linkcode ValidationError} is thrown when
 * `options.validator` returns a {@linkcode NegativeValidationResult}. If
 * `options.validator` is not provided, then validation automatically passes.
 *
 * If validation passes, the `fields` are then serialized according to
 * `options.serializer`, which receives `action`'s `type` and `fields`. If
 * `options.serializer` is not provided, the {@linkcode defaultSerializer} is
 * used. If `action.method` is `'GET'` or `'DELETE'`, the serialized content is
 * placed in the query string. Otherwise, the content is placed in the request
 * body.
 *
 * @example
 * import { defaultSerializer } from '@siren-js/client';
 *
 * await submit(action, {
 *   validator: (fields) => {
 *     // ensure each field has a non-nullish value
 *     if (fields.every((field) => field.value != null))
 *       return new PositiveValidationResult();
 *     else
 *       return new NegativeValidationResult();
 *   },
 *
 *   serializer: (type, fields) => {
 *     if (type === 'text/xml')
 *       return {
 *         content: // serialize fields to XML however you like...
 *       };
 *     else
 *       // rely on default serializer for any other type
 *       return defaultSerializer(type, field);
 *   }
 * })
 *
 * @param action an {@linkcode Action} to submit
 * @param options a {@linkcode SubmitOptions} object
 * @returns a `Promise` that fulfills with an HTTP `Response` object
 * @throws a {@linkcode ValidationError} when `options.validator` returns a {@linkcode NegativeValidationResult}
