The user module has error handling for failed emails sent on password
changing, but not yet in other cases, so that users may register and
get a message that email has been sent when in fact it has not, an
issue reported, e.g., here [1].  This patch adds tests for mails sent
on  user registration, generating appropriate user feedback (e.g., 
"Unable to send mail", etc.) and logs errors to the watchdog.
