Add a validation checker for website field

Background
-
One may edit their profile and add information about their website, Twitter and Discord profiles.
Issue
-
But I also noticed that entering just the word "test" in the website field doesn't pose any problems and shows up.
I think that such gibberish as a "website" doesn't really prove to be useful.
Solution
-
So, I am suggesting that the team should add at least a simple "tld" checker to ensure that the website URLs entered are valid.
~~There may be some special websites (like I saw http://ai/ somewhere) for which some exceptions may be made.~~
