configurable patron name formatting in SIP

[Jason Etheridge]

After having changed this subroutine in SIP/Patron.pm for a customer, we thought it may be worthwhile to make this more easily configurable:

sub format_name {
    my $u = shift;
    return OpenILS::SIP::clean_text(
        sprintf('%s %s %s',
            ($u->first_given_name || ''),
            ($u->second_given_name || ''),
            ($u->family_name || '')));
}

So, for now, this ticket is a placeholder indicating that desire. If someone wants to jump on it, feel free! :D

It would be nice to be able to more easily configure the name (and other SIP messages) in the staff interface. Noting that name would also need to include preferred name options now, which weren't available at the time of the original wish list report.

Patron preferred name was added to SIP responses with the release of Evergreen 3.10 via bug 1984114.

I agree that more configurability in SIP responses would be desirable.
