Enhances registration workflow and error handling

Introduces a new registration status 'Started' with adjustments
to default status handling. Adds a missing check in email
verification to prevent unauthorized users from accessing
the registration process. Updates forbidden response status
codes to improve security and debugging clarity.

Corrects unintended user modification warning logic and
ensures registration session keys are cleared post-creation
to prevent potential data leaks.

Improves code style consistency and readability across forms.
