Description:
------------
The filter FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL does not accept IDN domain names, so
valid email addresses are not accepted, the punycode version works.

I know the check for this is a little bit complex, because the allowed
chars in the domain name depend on the TLD. 

I think the current behavior is okay as default, but there should be an
option to allow IDN domain names.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
var_dump(filter_var('test@tätärätää.de', FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL));
var_dump(filter_var('test@xn--ttrt-loabbba.de',
FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL));
?>

Expected result:
----------------
string(...) "..."
string(...) "..."

Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)
string(...) "..."
