    Validate and format an issn.  This code fixes the case where an editor has included an ISSN in the citation but has separated the two groups of four
    digits with a space.  When that condition occurred, the resulting link looked like this:
    
    	|issn=0819 4327 gives: [http://www.worldcat.org/issn/0819 4327 0819 4327]  -- can't have spaces in an external link
    	
    This code now prevents that by inserting a hyphen at the issn midpoint.  It also validates the issn for length and makes sure that the checkdigit agrees
    with the calculated value.  Incorrect length (8 digits), characters other than 0-9 and X, or checkdigit / calculated value mismatch will all cause a check issn
    error message.  The issn is always displayed with a hyphen, even if the issn was given as a single group of 8 digits.
