------------------------------+------------------------
Internet Domain Names are very present throughout, e.g. in URLs and e-mail
addresses.
This patch adds django.core.validators.DomainNameValidator to check
Internet Domain Names.
DomainNameValidator supports IDNA (utf) domain names, but it can reject
them if optional accept_idna=False is passed to the constructor (defaults
to accept).
DomainNameValidator is implemented as follows:
* derives RegexValidator
* uses the same RegEx of URLValidator (with the additional constrain to
accept only 127 labels / 255 chars, as per RFC)
* if plain validation fails, converts UTF -> ASCII with IDNA encoding and
attempts to validate again (unless accept_idna=False)
Based on this Validator, I will submit separate patches to add
DomainNameField support for models.
