Email Address should be a required field in the "Add User" form

Problem/Motivation

The "Email Address" field is not set as a mandatory field in the "Add User" form, instead, it is mandatory for the "Create New Account" form.
The "Email Address" field should also be a required field in both the "Add User" form and the "Create New Account" form.

Currently, when a user is registered from the "Create New Account" form, he/she is asked for an email address, but the same is not asked for a user who is adding another user using the "Add User" form.

Steps to reproduce

1. Log in as an administrator
2. Go to the "People" section -> Click on "Add User" OR visit this path "/admin/people/create"
3. Observe the "Email address" field is not set as mandatory

Proposed resolution

The "Email address" field should be a mandatory field in the "Add User" form.

User interface changes

The "Email address" field should be displayed with an "*" sign indicating it as a mandatory field in the "Add User" form.
