Code Modernization: Fix null to non-nullable deprecation in `WP_REST_…

…Users_Controller::update_item()`.

Not all requests are accompanied by a `$request['email']`. This leads to a PHP 8.1 "passing null to non-nullable" deprecation notice when the `WP_REST_Users_Controller::update_item()` method passes a `null` email address onto `email_exists()`, which eventually reached the `WP_User::get_data_by()` method where things go wrong.

In the next condition in the code of the `WP_REST_Users_Controller::update_item()` method - `if ( $owner_id && $owner_id !== $id )` - you can see that the code already takes this into account as it will not throw a `WP_Error` if `$owner_id` is falsey.

`WP_User::get_data_by()` returns `false` for a failed field request. The other functions through which the return value is passed through, do the same.

So, by setting a default value for `$owner_id` of `false` and only checking `email_exists()` when there is an email to check, the "passing null to non-nullable" deprecation notice is bypassed without breaking BC.

Fixes a whole slew of test errors along the lines of:
{{{
