This PR suggests relaxing the allowed names of images in wells, following the discussion here: ome/ngff#380
While I understand restrictions on names for rows and columns of HCS plates, the images in HCS plates can be many things. I don't think it's reasonable to restrict it more than general Zarr node naming restrictions. As proposed by @d-v-b , this PR proposes following the Zarr spec recommendations for characters in node names.
I don't know what the rule on linking to other pages like the Zarr spec page is / should be, so we can also remove that link if needed.
@thewtex Could you also have a look at this and whether this would interfere with anything ngff-zarr related?

_in path names and only noticed last fall that this clashes with the strict path definitions in HCS wells.cc @imagejan @lorenzocerrone
