[libvirt PATCH] conf: network: remove hostname validation
We used to validate that the first character of the hostname is a
letter. Later, RFC1123 relaxed the requirements to allow a number
as well.
Drop the validation completely, since we do not care about the
following characters, and neither does dnsmasq (even if it's a comma,
which is a delimiter in the hosts file).
