[Patch for Review] iSCSI Name Validation using regex.

Hi All,
The following patch is to make use of a regular expression to validate the user given iSCSI Initiator name in Anaconda, while selecting iSCSI disks during OS installation. 
I have tested it for cases which I could think of at this time. 
Requesting review/feedback and inclusion.

Thanks and Regards,
Sujith Pandel




When adding iSCSI target disk during installation, the iSCSI Initiator name and the Target IP is validated to enable/disable the "Start Discovery" button on the page.
Currently, the validation of iSCSI Initiator Name is based on the existence of dots only (".") and this can be more efficiently done by using a regular expression.

The conditions for iSCSI initiator name used in this regex are
(https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3720#section-3.2.6.3.1 , https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3721#page-5 and http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/tutorials/EUI64.html):
1. For iqn format:
        a. Starts with string 'iqn.'
        b. A date code specifying the year and month in which the organization registered the domain or sub-domain name used as the naming authority string. “yyyy-mm”
        c. A dot (".")
        d. The organizational naming authority string, which consists of a valid, reversed domain or subdomain name.
        e. Optionally, a colon (":"), followed by a string of the assigning organization's choosing, which must make each assigned iSCSI name unique. With the exception of the colon prefix, the owner of the domain name can assign everything after the reversed domain name as desired.

2. For eui format:
        The format is "eui." followed by an EUI-64 identifier (16 ASCII-encoded hexadecimal digits).
