Fix API project lookups when querying with a namespace with dots

Stan Hu requested to merge stanhu/gitlab-ce:fix-api-lookup-with-usernames-with-dots into master

Attempting to use the /projects/:id API in the namespace/project format would always result in a 404 if the namespace contained a dot.

The reason? From http://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html#specifying-constraints:

"By default the :id parameter doesn't accept dots - this is because the dot is used as a separator for formatted routes. If you need to use a dot within an :id add a constraint which overrides this - for example id: /[^\/]+/ allows anything except a slash."

Closes https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/issues/9573
