Dharini Chandrasekar babff882c0 Fixing HostName and adding support for HostAddress 
When config options in different projects use IPOpt as the opt's
type, it restricts operators to only IP addresses.
When the opt is set to HostnameOpt type, currently even an
incomplete or invalid IP passes as a valid hostname. Also, currently
HostnameOpt does not make sure that there is a presense of at least one
non-numeric character in the provided host name.

According to RFC 1123, (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1123),
a valid host name can never have the dotted-decimal form #.#.#.#,
since at least the highest-level component label will be alphabetic.

This patch fixes the existing Hostname Opt to abide by the stated RFC
and also adds a new opt type that would enable operators to provide
either a hostname or an IP and at the same time perform checks on
both IPOpt type and HostnameOpt type, by setting opt type to
"HostAddressOpt" type. This would ensure that an invalid IP does
not pass as a valid hostname and at the same time retains the rules
required to be followed for the validation of an acceptable hostname.
