Description
Whois
A whois utility to look up whether a domain is registered and show the registration details. Consider using a whois library like https://github.com/HelgeSverre/Domain-Availability (Or https://github.com/3name/WhoisParser which includes ability to do IP/ASN searches. Maybe useful for other purposes) for doing whois searches. We should default to performing our own searches rather than relying on the registrar module to perform them.
This library should also handle normal whois searches on the order form rather than using a module, for determining domain availability. This will allow people to sell domains without using a domain module, but still allow the order form to verify that it is available so they can checkout and register it manually.
