Sign in with CoinPay: never link an existing account by CoinPay's email

bridgeAccount links a first arrival to an existing board account by email when
the provider says email_verified. CoinPay never verifies emails, so the CoinPay
callback now always passes email_verified=false: a CoinPay login whose email is
an existing account's address gets its own account, never the victim's (or its
admin flag). Linking stays by the CoinPay sub/DID.
