Public bug reported:

, I noticed that in Mahara 1.8, there was no "Add user"/"Decline" button
underneath a user's name on the Pending Members page for a group.
Instead there is a "Remove from group" button which does nothing,
because the user is not yet a member of the group.

This appears to be a regression in master, because it works fine in 1.7

To replicate:

1. Create a group
2. Mark it "Controlled" and "Request"
3. Log in as a second user
4. Request membership in the group
5. Log back in as the group creator/admin
6. Navigate to the Pending Members page (either by clicking on the link on the notification you will have received, or by going to the group, clicking the "Members" tab, and then changing from "Current" to "Requests"

Expected Result: You should see the user who requested membership, with buttons to add them or decline their request
Actual Result: You'll see the user, with a button that says "Remove from group"
