looseUrl option identifies text with multiple periods as a url #59
Description
Issue:
Currently, the following patterns of text are being identified as url when looseUrl option is true when using linkify.
pattern1 -> 'awdaw....aw'
pattern2 -> 'awdaw...wad...wadw'
and so on...Expected behaviour:
Technically, this shouldn't be identified as urls as there are multiple periods present consecutively and thus is an invalid url pattern.

I can track this issue to the
looseUrlRegexand the issue's arising from including.at this point in regex which allows matching for multiple periods consecutively. Removing.from this section resolves the issue.Complete
