Title:
  Address bar doesn't support new TLDs

Status in Web Browser App:
  Fix Released
Status in webbrowser-app source package in Vivid:
  New

Bug description:
  We have a function in `src/app/webbrowser/AddressBar.qml` called
  `looksLikeAUrl()` that checks if an url is valid.

  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~phablet-team/webbrowser-
  app/trunk/view/head:/src/app/webbrowser/AddressBar.qml#L238

  It works well, but it checks tld length is <5.

  TLD could be longer[0], so we should remove that restriction and find
  a better strategy to verify tld.
