Allow a single trailing `.` when validating FQDNs from SOCKS.
URI syntax (and DNS syntax) allows for a single trailing `.` to
explicitly distinguish between a relative and absolute
(fully-qualified) domain name. While this is redundant in that RFC 1928
DOMAINNAME addresses are *always* fully-qualified, certain clients
blindly pass the trailing `.` along in the request.
Fixes bug 16674; bugfix on 0.2.6.2-alpha.
