Provide ability to attach a mobile number to user account WITHOUT requiring confirmation code.

We are wishing to conform to Australian Premium SMS legislation which requires the mobile phone owner respond *via SMS only* with a keyword to confirm their intent to subscribe to the premium SMS service.

Currently, the SMS User module does not allow users to supply a mobile number *without* online validation - it is hard-coded on lines 405-409 sms_user.module

This means the user needs to perform two steps to subscribe to a service instead of one (ie confirm number, then respond to opt-in message via reply SMS).

It would be great if mobile number confirmation could be disabled via the user interface. ie an additional option at line 16 of sms_user.admin.inc t('Yes, but do not require confirmation'). This would ensure we can still use all the wonderful smsframework code without being locked into a workflow that doesn't fit our own.
