[Simple] Domain identifier in common policy



The last remaining open issue in common policy is the format of the domain attribute in common policy.

Concrete suggestion:

Use RFC 3987 (internationalized domain names):

ihost = IP-literal / IPv4address / ireg-name

Every URI is also an IRI, so this should work generally. This supports both IPv4 and IPv6. RFC 3987 also provides comparison rules, in Section 5. This has the advantage that the same code would already be needed for the full IRI comparison for the 'id' parameter.
