wireaddr: is_dnsaddr allow underscore in hostname
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The hostname part of a DNS FQDN can allow for additional characters
other than specified in `man 7 hostname`.

This extends is_dnsaddr and the test issue ElementsProject#5657.
Also fixes a typo in a comment.
