   ### Description
   
   When registering a template/ISO through an URL, the Management Servers 
always validate if the URL is resolvable before inserting an entry in the 
database, so that the SSVM downloads it afterwards. However, if the Management 
Servers do not have access to the Internet, and no internal DNS is used in the 
environment, it is not possible to register a template/ISO through an URL 
because this validation fails.
   
   To address this issue, this PR creates the global setting 
`validate.url.is.resolvable.before.registering.template`, which allows 
operators to disable this validation. By default, this setting is set to `true` 
so that the current behavior remains the same.

   ### How Has This Been Tested?
   
   With the setting set to `true`:
   
   1. I tried to register a template using the URL 
http://dl.openvm.eu/cloudstack/macchinina/x86_64/macchinina-kvm.qcow2.bz2. I 
verified that the template was successfully registered.
   2. I tried to register a template using the URL 
http://dl.naszsajhdashdjakshd.eu/cloudstack/macchinina/x86_64/macchinina-kvm.qcow2.bz2.
 I verified that the error `Unable to resolve dl.naszsajhdashdjakshd.eu.` was 
shown, and that the template was not registered.
   3. I tried to register an ISO using the URL 
http://archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br/iso/2024.03.01/archlinux-2024.03.01-x86_64.iso. I 
verified that the ISO was successfully registered.
   4. I tried to register an ISO using the URL 
http://asdazxcxzc.br/iso/2024.03.01/archlinux-2024.03.01-x86_64.iso. I verified 
that the error `Unable to resolve asdazxcxzc.br.` was shown, and that the 
template was not registered.
   
   With the setting set to `false`:
   1. I tried to register a template using the URL 
http://dl.openvm.eu/cloudstack/macchinina/x86_64/macchinina-kvm.qcow2.bz2. I 
verified that the template was successfully registered.
