Changed the email validation for only encoded chars

What does this MR do and why?

The fix for email validation was done through a security fix - https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/441093 and was back-ported to release 16-11, 16-10, 16-9.

Hence now a bug-fix for issue that occured due to the respective change #458764 (closed) - will need to be back-ported too.
