As the title suggests, this PR creates a new email validation mechanic by editing the TextFieldType::Email enum, allowing programmers to add custom domains to the matching algorithm.

It also removes regex matching – not only was this expensive, but it was also far too challenging to transform our standard String emails into a regex pattern. Overall, it was not worth it, and the new version will work using pure Rust functions.
