Router: Do not automatically adjust lookup_regex when trailing_slash is True
BREAKING CHANGE
When trailing_slash is set to True, the router no longer will adjust the lookup regex to allow it to include periods. To simulate the old behavior, the programmer should specify `lookup_regex = '[^/]+'` on the viewset.
