regex changed and determination of virtual custom attributes now it is are based on prefix
in UI listing attributes in filter tab
example: method converts "MiqGroup.vms.host-disconnected" to ["MiqGroup", ["vms", "host", "disconnected"]]
Virtual custom attributes can contains special characters and thanks to that this parsing method did not work properly. This commit is fixing it.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Not necessary for this PR, but if this regex is getting increasingly complex it may be better to implement a bona fide parser. User feedback is valuable - LMK if you have any opinions either way

fixes #10482 point 1
Purpose
Reporting with custom attributes was broken when CustomAttribute#name contains some special characters as "." or "/".
This PR is fixing in UI : clicking on filter tab in report definition and in report generation.
The common thread is basically that we have couple method which processing(and expecting) attributes (defined report) with form (for example)
Vm.hosts.disks-nameand when we have virtual custom attribute it has form
Vm.virtual_custom_attribute_manage.org/kurbenetesso it is failing in some parsing method.So I found such parsing methods and I added here some "IFs" for handling virtual custom attributes (794b986, 84a855d, 69c85ee)
I needed to change also regex in MiqExpression::Field to parse it, and I solved by prefix(6fbce18).
At this moment I am allowing to have basically "whatever" in name of custom attribute and I didn't any issue with it maybe we should limited it. ?
If we will limited it how I should tackle with custom attributes which contains forbidden characters ? (Don't display it at all ? )
