 When presented with the admin email verification screen, clicking update
 takes you to the `Settings > General` page where the user can update the
 email address. But, even if the user initiates an admin email address
 change (which requires a confirmation URL in an email to be clicked), they
 will continue to see the verification screen until they click to confirm
 the email is correct or "Remind me later", even if the email change
 request is confirmed.

 When a user navigates to the Settings > General page from clicking Update
 on the verification screen and follows through to initiate a request to
 change the admin email, the verification screen should be snoozed the same
 as clicking "Remind me later".

 Being consistently presented with the verification screen could cause the
 user to confirm the email just to get the notice to stop.

 When a request to change the email is confirmed, both the old and new
 email receive a notification informing them of the action. The
 verification screen could probably be snoozed same amount of time as
 `admin_email_check_interval` at that point.
