Quickly-undone actions shouldn't send mail notifications

Bug Description

1. Assign a bug to someone.
2. Within five minutes, undo the assignment.

What happens: The mistaken assignee receives a confusing e-mail notification.
What should happen: Nobody receives any e-mail notification at all.

Launchpad should not send notifications about anything that is undone within five minutes -- assignee, description, tags, importance, whatever. Assigning a private bug to someone who shouldn't see it is merely the most important example.
