Phone number validation

Since FileCap Server version 4.3.0 local phone numbers (without +countrycode) will be validated, Messagebird supports this feature and this is enabled by default. The Messagebird phone number validation will tell FileCap if the specified phone number looks valid and transform the phone number to international format.
