[PATCH] Use split_ident_line() in parse_user()

Use Git's built-in ident line splitting algorithm instead of
reimplementing it. This does not only simplify the code but also makes
sure that cgit is consistent with Git when it comes to author parsing.

I would also like to get rid of the angle brackets and only add them
when displaying the information as HTML. That would also result in email
filters getting email addresses without angle brackets which I consider
to be a good thing but it breaks backwards compatibility. Any opinions
on this are welcome.
