[Bug] Add regex to 'Link to Work' , 'Link to Creator Profile' and add numeric validation to 'Year of Creation'

[soustab10]

Description

Add regex check in 'Link to Work' and 'Link to Creator Profile' field as it prevents users from entering random/incorrect URLs.
Add check if year entered is a 4-digit number in the 'Year of Creation' field.

Reproduction

1. Step 1: Go to https://chooser-beta.creativecommons.org/
2. Step 2 : Fill the 'License Chooser' till Attribution Details'
3. Step 3 : Fill anything random in the URLs panel.
4. See that instead of giving a prompt/warning it accepts the data.

Expectation

The user should be prompted to enter a valid URL.

@possumbilities I was thinking of adding a check to the "Year of Creation" field as well for users to enter only a valid year ( and not something like 12345). So, can you tell me what year range should I put in? Thank you.

@soustab10 Hmmm... This change is outside the scope of this Issue, which is presented as narrowly fixing validation only on the "link to work" field, and I'd ask that you make another Issue for that.

As to this specific ask: I don't think inputting a year range would be the best route. Validation should help, but start in a way that's not entirely restricting so it can be flexible and account for growth over time.

The only thing a year of creation would need to account for is that it's a 4 digit number. Going beyond that seems like adding too much complexity when this is a tool for creators to use, not a registration system where data is gathered and recorded.
