Remove check for project when creating new account for ICLA
Current ICLA handling for new accounts requires the project be valid. This causes an issue for new members who do not have an account and thus have no project.
All other checks are left in place.
There are cases that need to be addressed:
- new members of infra team
- new administrative accounts, e.g. President's assistant
- new Apache Members voted during Annual Meeting but not committers
AFAICT if a user id is not provided, then the project name is not necessary, so there is a work-round, albeit not always as convenient.
Given that notification needs to be sent somewhere when such a request is made, perhaps it would make more sense to allow for some extra 'projects' in the list, so the target of the email can be established?
