This line was added in e8ab7cd1a as a desperate measure to get the
`set_loglevel` helper to successfully suppress the `zulip.send_email`
logs.
In fact, the reason that just setting `level` there wasn't doing the
job had nothing to do with `propagate`, which doesn't interact with
`level`. (See the long block comment in `zproject/settings.py`,
searching for "Python logging module", for my attempt at concisely
explaining these semantics.) Rather, our setting for `level` was
getting clobbered by the use of `create_logger`; and setting
`propagate` to False worked by completely suppressing all logs to
`zulip.send_email` and descendants from reaching the normal handlers,
regardless of the log messages' levels.
Now that the `create_logger` issue is fixed (see a few commits before
this one), drop that.
