(sgmllib.py): Partial acceptance of patch from David Leonard
<leonard@dstc.edu.au>; allows hyphen and period in the middle of attribute names. Still not allowed as first character; as first character these are illegal in the Reference Concrete Syntax, and we've not identified any use of these characters as the first char in an attribute name in deployment on the web.
