Comment (by audrasjb):

 Thanks @pbearne, I tested your PR with the provided testing steps and it
 also fixes the issue on my side.

 Steps to reproduce:
 - make a user with the same username AND email address. e.g.
 foo(@)example.com
 - edit that user and change the email address (username not editable) to
 the email address. e.g. bar(@)example.com and save user
 - Try to use the “Send Reset Link” button while editing that user again
 (/wp-admin/user-edit.php)

 After applying the patch, the email is sent.
