 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="35575"
 MS: Allow "Network Admin Email" to be a non-user during network setup.

 The network admin email setting for a network is often used as a catch-all
 or notification email separate from the actual user ID set as the owner of
 the new network. If a non-user email address is set during network
 installation, we can defer to the current user as the actual network admin
 and apply the entered email as the address to which general notifications
 are sent and emails are sent from.

 In the future, we'll want to update the messaging around "Network Admin
 Email" to reflect its reality. See #34293.

 Props jjeaton.
 Fixes #34065.
