Description

Because the model concern sets email_changed? to always be false, Devise's [reconfirmable](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/blob/9f37b6eff7b4f9b0441be5a687b3091db82befc4/lib/devise/models/confirmable.rb#L256) portion of :confirmable will never trigger. I found [this](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/devise_token_auth/issues/229) issue saying that it was necessary to override the redirect_url. Does that mean that breaking reconfirmable is an unfortunate but necessary side effect?

Research direction

Start with the model concern mentioned in the issue and compare its email_changed? behavior with Devise's confirmable.rb reconfirmable section at the linked line. Check the referenced redirect_url discussion and determine whether reconfirmable can still trigger without breaking the token-auth flow; done means the behavior and any required redirect handling are verified.
