patch to add dot character to lexer pattern

Description of problem:

The lexer pattern for the options string does not accept the dot ('.') character, so setting an nfs v4 minor version with 'vers=4.0' fails as a syntax error.

(currently, only nfs4 version number is known to be affected; there may be others)


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

autofs - all versions


How reproducible:

see below


Steps to Reproduce:

add a mount option in /etc/auto.master that includes a '.', for example:
/net    -hosts  vers=4.1
or
/mnt_indirect   /etc/auto.indirect   vers=4.1


Actual results:

	# automount -m
	.
	syntax error while parsing map.
	syntax error in map near [ bogus option ]

	autofs dump map information
	===========================

	global options: none configured
	...


Expected results:

mount option is valid syntax

	# automount -m

	autofs dump map information
	===========================

	global options: none configured

	Mount point: /net

	source(s):

	  type: hosts
	  map: vers=4.1
	...


Additional info:

In some cases, vers=4,minorversion=1 can be used as a workaround
