Register user / allow to select the group where the user wants to register

[josegar74]

This change request extends the Register User function to allow selection of the group in which the user wants to register and enhances the registration form to indicate required fields.

The requested group is not assigned to the user when is registered, it is used in the mail to the administrator to inform about the group requested (similar as the requested profile field):

Dear Admin,
Newly registered user [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) has requested RegisteredUser access 
in group Sample group for http://localhost:8080/geonetwork/srv/.
Yours sincerely,
The My GeoNetwork catalogue team.
