Improve help text on email field about how emails are used with this module

It would be great if you could add help text to the email field to let the user know:

  • The entered email may/will be kept private (and)
  • Will (only) be used for registration / login purposes

I think it may not be clear to all users the email they're entering is what they'll use to log in later.

    We should make sure to change the description, if the submodule is active, as it uses your email-address as your username and usernames can leak: https://www.drupal.org/drupal-security-team/security-team-procedures/dis... β†’ and this text:

    The email address is not made public and will only be used if you wish to receive a new password or wish to receive certain news or notifications by email.

    won't fully apply then.

    I'd say the core field description is enough?

    The email address is not made public. It will only be used if you need to be contacted about your account or for opted-in notifications.

    I don't think this needs any further adjustment (aside from the submodule).
