Url validator mishandles upper case and repeated hyphens. #27
Description
I claim both of these should work:
Case-insensitivity in hostnames:
>>> validators.url('http://www.GOOGLE.com/')
ValidationFailure(func=url, args={'public': False, 'value': 'http://www.GOOGLE.com/'})
Ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostname#Restrictions_on_valid_host_names
Multiple sequential hyphens:
>>> validators.url('http://xn--bcher-kva.ch/')
ValidationFailure(func=url, args={'public': False, 'value': 'http://xn--bcher-kva.ch/'})

Also trailing dots should be valid for hostnames.
