Bug Description

There are many localizations that do not use standard ASCII, and the code currently restricts individuals from creating Security Groups with names containing non-ASCII characters.

You can see in https://review.openstack.org/#/c/54007/ and the associated launchpad tickets that the current validation was only loosening overly-restrictive validation; I believe we need to restrict them even less.

Unless there are specific reasons that the names need to be ASCII, we should loosen this restriction.

It should be noted that users have been able to create security groups from the command line including such non-ASCII characters.

    Allowing non-ASCII characters for Security Group names

    See bug report for details; this removes the ASCII-only restriction for
    the Security Group name. You can also test that the command-line allows
    for non-ASCII characters, so we should do the same.
