Blake Erickson fec68d3d25 DEV: Confirm email when creating users via the API
This commit is for a frequently requested task on meta so that only 1
API call is needed instead of 3!

In order to create a user via the api and not have them receive an
activation email you can pass in the `active=true` flag. This prevents
sending an email, but it is only half of the solution and puts the db in
a weird state where it has an active user with an unconfirmed email.

This commit fixes that and ensures that if the `active=true` flag is set
the user's email is also marked as confirmed.

This change only applies to admins using the API.
