This PR aligns the regular expression that is used to analyze dimensional metric names with AWS's requirements for these names.
The rules for namespaces are (cf. cloudwatch_concepts): alphanumeric characters (0-9A-Za-z), period (.), hyphen (-), underscore (_), forward slash (/), hash (#), and colon (:).
The rules for dimension names and values are (cf. API_Dimension):
Dimension names must contain only ASCII characters, must include at least one non-whitespace character, and cannot start with a colon (:).
Dimension values must contain only ASCII characters and must include at least one non-whitespace character.
