Modified DNS hostname mangling scheme, URL generator logic,

and automatic virtualization server registration so that
  now we virtualize on URLs like this:

     http://mysite.www--sandbox.ip.localdomain.lan:8180/
     http://alice.mysite.www--sandbox.ip.localdomain.lan:8180/
     http://preview.alice.mysite.www--sandbox.ip.localdomain.lan:8180/

  Or if you're using EchDNS at ip.alfrescodemo.net (the default):

     http://mysite.www--sandbox.127-0-0-1.ip.alfrescodemo.net:8180/
     http://alice.mysite.www--sandbox.127-0-0-1.ip.alfrescodemo.net:8180/
     http://preview.alice.mysite.www--sandbox.127-0-0-1.ip.alfrescodemo.net:8180/

  The reasons behind this change have to do with:
  
    [1] Allowing wildcard cookies to be shared with subdomains, if desired.
        The scenario is that if you have an elaborate webapp that
        needs a cookie to function (or some auth), the user "alice"
        does not want to have to re-log in to the app just to get
        preview functions to work. 

    [2] Making the mangling scheme compatible with I18N-encoded URLs
        See:  IDNA  (Internationalizing Domain Names In Applications)
        RFCs: 3490,3492.   The problem with the old scheme was that
        relied on the string "--" as a delimiter within host labels,
        but IDNA uses "xn--" as a prefix to indicate that a label
        was I18N-encoded (and that the app should un-mangle in the
        presentation layer).  Ugh.

   The names of the stores was also rationalized to match the new URL 
   scheme.   The "." delimiting host lables becomes "--" in the
   repo's dir name, and the ordering of labels is reversed.

   Reasons:

    [1]  It's nicer to see project-first ordering in the 
         file system because it's more tab-complete friendly.
         It's also prettier visually with "ls -l" because
         logically related dirs line-up visually.

    [2]  It's dangerous to use "." as a character in directory names
         because a fully-patched version of IIS might refuse to
         serve content off such a path.  Weird, huh?
   
   It's too bad that the repo's dir name can't just be exactly
   the same as the fqdn (or a portion of it), but this reverse
   ordering ended up being the lesser of the available evils,
   because it optimizes the user's experience in each relm at 
   the expense of a small amont of URL <--> file system funkines.
   Note that they can't be the same in any case because of the
   "--" vs "." issue... so the "identity" mapping was already
   a lost cause.
