Allura doesn't currently require an email address for user registration. There
should be an option to require it. We have an option called
`auth.require_email_addr` which is enforced on the /auth/preferences page, so
we could use the same setting to control how user registration works.
Users should be in a 'pending' state (new flag) initially, and system should
send a password verification email (similar to what we already do on
/auth/preferences). After that email is verified, user is no longer pending.
We will have to update many places in the code to check the new 'pending'
state. Probable best to search everywhere users are searched by 'disabled' or
`someuser.disabled` is checked, and determine if the pending flag needs to be
checked too. Since pending users shouldn't be allowed to do anything yet.
