[EP-tech] Person URI generation

For RDF output, Eprints uses the script: lib/cfg.d/rdf_uri_person.pl

to convert an existing person id to a URI with the line:

return "epid:person/ext-".$person->{id};
This doesn't take into account the possible use of existing person URIs as the person id in the metadata, e.g. if using a Names URI or one produced by any other identity service such as ORCID.
I think that rdf_uri_person.pl needs to be altered to first check if the $person->{id} value is already a usable URI. 

Best wishes,
Phil
