"git var" recently learned to report on whether an ident we
fetch from it was configured explicitly or implicitly. Let's
make that information available to callers of the ident
function.

Because evaluating "ident" in an array versus scalar context
already has a meaning, we cannot return our extra value in a
backwards compatible way. Instead, we require the caller to
add an extra "explicit" flag to request the information.
The ident_person function, on the other hand, always returns
a scalar, so we are free to overload it in an array context.
