When bulk-adding email addresses to a group via the admin UI, invitation emails …were always sent regardless of the "Notify users" checkbox state. The backend parsed `notify_users` and used it to control system messages for existing users, but the invite path for unknown emails only checked a separate `skip_email` param that the frontend never sent (#29962 added `skip_email` as an API-only escape hatch). Additionally, the frontend disabled the "Notify users" checkbox and forced it to `false` when only emails were entered, meaning admins had no way to control invite email delivery through the UI. Backend: derive `skip_email` from both the API `skip_email` param (for backward compat) and the `notify_users` param so the checkbox now controls invite emails too. Frontend: remove the disabled state on the "Notify users" checkbox when emails are entered, and default it to checked so the existing behavior of sending invite emails is preserved. Keep "Set as owner" reset when emails are present since non-existing users can't be owners. https://meta.discourse.org/t/397334
