Resolves a conflict with the CRM merge (#555) that landed on beta between when this branch was cut and now. Two conflict regions in backend/src/routes/adminCustomers.js: 1. **Require block** — both branches added new requires after customerAccountsService. Kept both: this branch's emailNormalization import AND beta's customerHoursService + invoiceService imports (the CRM merge added the hours-billing + invoice-creation paths to this router). 2. **Edit-customer validators** — both branches changed the same set of body() validators in the PUT /:id handler. This branch added the IDENTITY_PRESERVING_NORMALIZE_EMAIL options arg to normalizeEmail; beta changed every body() to optional({ nullable: true }) so passive-customer records that store nulls for missing profile fields don't reject on save. Kept both: the nullable pattern from beta + the email-normalization options from this branch. Preserved beta's explanatory comment about the nullable choice. Also patched one NEW normalizeEmail site the CRM merge introduced: - backend/src/routes/adminCustomers.js:231 — POST /admin/customers now exists (CRM-era customer-create endpoint). Same options arg applied. backend/src/routes/adminBusinessProfile.js has an isEmail() WITHOUT normalizeEmail() on the issuer email — intentional (no normalization means no risk of the Gmail dot-strip bug for that field), no change needed. All 18 normalizeEmail sites now pass IDENTITY_PRESERVING_NORMALIZE_EMAIL. 7/7 regression tests still pass. Lint clean on the merged file.
