#5379: add earlier hook in bp_core_screen_signup() *before* validation checks

 There is an existing action hook called bp_signup_validate in
 bp_core_screen_signup() which comes *after* all of the WP and BP
 validation checks.

 Can we please insert

 {{{
 do_action( 'bp_signup_prevalidate' );
 }}}

 in bp_core_screen_signup() at line 82 of bp-member-screens.php to allow
 intervention *before* the validation checks?

 (My use case is to improve the mobile experience by making it possible to
 bypass requiring the user to enter the password twice. Leaving
 #submit_password_confirm hidden and empty on the client also makes for a
 nice honeypot.)
