email_notification: Fix bad rendering of math formulas.

Earlier, for the emails having latex math like
"$$d^* = +\infty$$", the bad rendering led to the math
being included multiple times in the email body.

This was due to displaying KaTeX HTML without the CSS.

This commit fixes the incorrect behavior by replacing
the KaTeX with the raw LaTex source.

Fixes part of #25289.
