Public bug reported:

In Admin -> Configure site -> Site options -> Account settings you can
choose the "Default registration expiry lifetime". This drop-down menu
displays the correct options with the correct capitalization.

However, when an admin receives the registration request email, the time
period is capitalized as it is taken from the drop-down menu, e.g.

"You will need to approve or deny this registration request within 2
Weeks."

However, it should read:

"You will need to approve or deny this registration request within 2
weeks."

A new set of strings should be set up that shows "days", "weeks",
"months", "years" not capitalized so that these strings can be used in
the HTML and plain text emails sent out for this message. Unfortunately,
it's not just a case of renaming the strings as their capitalized
versions need to be kept in the pieforms element for the drop-down menu.

To replicate:

1. Activate the "Default registration expiry lifetime" and set it to a number of days / weeks / months / years.
2. turn on "Confirm registration" in an institution on the site and allow self-registration.
3. Self-register for an account in the institution.
4. Check the email you'd receive either as admin of the institution or site admin.

Expected result: "You will need to approve or deny this registration request within 2 weeks." (or days / months / years)
Actual result: "You will need to approve or deny this registration request within 2 Weeks." (or Days / Months / Years)

All options, including the "No end date set" one should be tested as
well as the plain text and HTML messages.
