Some "verification needed" messages are not clear that _e-mail address_ is to be verified

Description
These messages: - "Almost done! Your account still needs to be verified." - "Someone has registered an account with this username, but it still has to be verified." say the account needs to be verified. But really what needs to be *verified* is that the e-mail address belongs to the account's owner. The account itself needs to be *activated*.

Hm. I've changed these lines to: - Email verification needed! - Almost done! Your account still needs to be activated. - Someone has registered an account with this username, but it still has to be activated. The last two have a couple of other lines that help give some useful context: :: <p> {% trans -%} Almost done! Your account still needs to be activated. {%- endtrans %} </p> <p> {% trans -%} An email should arrive in a few moments with instructions on how to do so. {%- endtrans %} </p> and :: <p> {% trans -%} Someone has registered an account with this username, but it still has to be activated. {%- endtrans %} </p> <p> {% trans login_url=request.urlgen('mediagoblin.auth.login') -%} If you are that person but you've lost your verification email, you can <a href="{{ login_url }}">log in</a> and resend it. {%- endtrans %} </p> Given that additional context, I think that makes things clear enough. Reopen this if you feel otherwise. Thanks!
