Summary: CQPweb: hyphens in handles

Initial Comment:
"handles", ie internal labels for corpora, annotations, metadata fields, metadata values, queries, subcorpora and pretty much everything else, are currently restricted to \w characters.

HOWEVER, CWB/CQP allows identifiers like corpus names to include hyphens. CQPweb then fails to support these.

Solution: allow [\w-] in handles.
Prognosis: could be quite tricky to implement without introducing bugs. Lots of places in the code will need changing.

Message:
Function cqpweb_handle_enforce() implements this. All handle-enforcing
should use this function.

There is also a Boolean return version, cqpweb_handle_check().

Both in library.inc.php

However this bug remains open because this function is not used at --all--
the points where it is needed yet.
