Even if GetDisplayName() is normally preferred elsewhere, this change
provides more consistency, as usernames are also always being shown
when participating in a conversation taking place in an issue or
a pull request. This change makes conversations easier to follow, as
you would not have to have a mental association between someone's
username and someone's real name in order to follow what is happening.
This behavior matches GitHub's. Optimally, both the username and the
full name (if applicable) could be shown, but such an effort is a
much bigger task that needs to be thought out well.
I kept sending pull requests that consisted of one-line changes. It's
time to
settle this once and for all. (Maybe.)
- Explain Gitea behavior and the consequences of each
setting better, so that the user does not have to consult
the docs.
- Do not use different spellings of identical terms
interchangeably, e.g. `e-mail` and `email`.
- Use more conventional terms to describe the same things,
e.g. `Confirm Password` instead of `Re-Type Password`.
- Introduces additional clarification for Mirror Settings
- Small adjustments in test
- This is a cry for help.
- Grammar and spelling consistencies for en-US locale
(e.g. cancelled -> canceled)
- Introduce tooltip improvements.

This commit assumes that the warning can be made more discreet
so as to make it less annoying for the people that do not actually
need the warning, without necessarily increasing the risk for those
that do need it.
This doesn't fix the underlying problem of the warning being shown
in certain cases that, say, a certain kind of whitespace character
like 0x1E could be absolutely justifiable from a technical
perspective.

Not too important, but I think that it'd be a pretty neat touch.
Also fixes some layout bugs introduced by a previous PR.

- Improve "Hide the activity from the profile page" label
- E-Mail privacy icon in user profile now redirects to Privacy section
- E-Mail privacy settings moved to Privacy section
Previously, the user was redirected to the setting itself, however,
that is not a good design choice because the setting itself would
be at the very top of the user's browser window. This fix doesn't
fix the problem entirely, but it is definitely an improvement
compared to its previous iteration.
Very small UX change, "confusable" is a word that is indeed valid, but
when you look it up online, it doesn't take long for this adjective to
appear in [its technical Unicode-related
context](https://util.unicode.org/UnicodeJsps/confusables.jsp). I think
that it throws me off as a person that doesn't speak English natively.
I think that this could be replaced with "can be confused with". As the
change is very small and purely a matter of preference, if you (the
maintainer) believe that this shouldn't be included, feel free to close
this without any further discussion, as your time would probably be
better used elsewhere.
I've heard many reports of users getting scared when they see their own
email address for their own profile, as they believe that the email
field is also visible to other users. Currently, using Incognito mode
or going over the Settings is the only "reasonable" way to verify this
from the perspective of the user.
A locked padlock should be enough to indicate that the email is not
visible to anyone apart from the user and the admins. An unlocked
padlock is used if the email address is only shown to authenticated
users.
Some additional string-related changes in the Settings were introduced
as well to ensure consistency, and the comments in the relevant tests
were improved so as to allow for easier modifications in the future.

#### Screenshot (EDIT: Scroll down for more up-to-date screenshots)
***Please remove this section before merging.***
This lock should only appear if the email address is explicitly hidden
using the `Hide Email Address` setting. The change was originally tested
on top of and designed for the Forgejo fork, but I don't expect any
problems to arise from this and I don't think that a
documentation-related change is strictly necessary.
