Update Config cards and account documentation

I saw that the *signup card has disappeared from a couple of Wagns - and English. Also, the *request card is now blank. Figured out what has happened and it seems like:

*request should be deleted from English.
Existing Wagns' Config card should be migrated to match English.
accounts should be updated to reflect the name change from "Account Request" to "Sign Up" (and tangentially to explain the stuff about tokens - I have no idea how that works).

I understand wanting to simplify Config, but it is now much harder to discover how to configure things around accounts. Maybe at least include on Config the fields for customizing the default setup around accounts (such as setting what email address receives notice of new Sign Ups)?

- *request+*to is still used but should be obviated very soon (probably 1.13.1) with the new email handling.

- the Config card was migrated everywhere where that card was "pristine" (not edited by anyone other than Wagn Bot). Anywhere else it has to be copied by hand.

- I'm definitely behind on all kinds of documentation; I'm hoping to catch up this week. This is why I still haven't sent out 1.13 announcements.

My behindness includes the tickets to explain the new email handling on the way, but the short of it is that there will no longer be any hard-coded emails; it's all in cards. In general, I think the current Config documentation is already much easier to understand than the old stuff, but what's missing is the email section; that's coming very soon.
