Fixed via:

[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/3501](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/3501)

Also there was bug when domain like `foo.com` is added in `exclude_rel_nofollow_domains` setting, then domain like `nofoo.com` was also being allowed to be excluded from nofollow. Fixed that too.
