No check of findlib package name

Detailed description

Even if they are " " in findlib package name, oasis don't fail. For example:

Library "rest-ocsigen"
FindlibParent: rest
FindlibName: ocsigen
Path: src/rest/ocsigen
Modules: RESTOcsigen
BuildDepends: rest,
ocsigen
markdown, markdown.html,
threads

"ocsigen markdown" is not a package and it generates an error in _tags

Lexical analysis error: Bad key in configuration line at line 32 (from file: "_tags")

Because of the blank.

I recently came across a similar issue. When `Pack: true` is set for a library and it contains special characters, such as '-', or ' ' (space), it will not fail with an error, but will instead succeed and generate a packed module with an invalid module name.
