            Bug ID: 66462
           Summary: Read author of threaded comments
           Product: POI
           Version: 5.2.2-FINAL

Hi,

MS Excel 365 allows adding threaded comments.

But if read such comment via POI API like:

> try (Workbook workbook = WorkbookFactory.create(new File("Threaded 
> Comment.xlsx"))) {
>     var sheet1 = workbook.getSheet("Sheet1");
>     var comment = sheet1.getCellComment(new CellAddress("B6"));
>     System.out.println(comment.getAuthor());
> }

API returns author name like: tc={F049E3E4-F46C-4142-BC23-765F15BF2866}

That is not correct, because it's an ID to the person from
/xl/persons/person.xml file with the following content:

> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
> <personList 
> xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/spreadsheetml/2018/threadedcomments";
>       xmlns:x="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/spreadsheetml/2006/main";>
>       <person displayName="John Smith" 
> id="{0308133B-9C44-2641-B9DF-A3A2B2FF3930}" userId="9ea07f6ebf54614f" 
> providerId="Windows Live"/>
> </personList>

Is there any API to read a correct author name for such comments? If no, could
you please fix this issue and provide an API for it?
