How Augur is suppose to populate emails:

For every commit, augur checks to see if the author email has a GH account associated with it using the following API endpoint
https://api.github.com/search/users?q={email}+in:email+type:user
called in:
[Contributor interface code](https://github.com/chaoss/augur/blob/main/augur/tasks/github/facade_github/contributor_interfaceable/contributor_interface.py)

This would also impact contributor alias since we are not getting an initial email so any following would be missed as well.

Somewhere this is not getting called or used

Open question(s):
- is insert_facade_contributors running?

Note: contributor resolution is a different limit (50/hr)

This is most likely related to #215
