More name fields in get patron API
At present, we can only see the full name field in get patron endpoints. For some systems that connect via api, it would be highly beneficial to have other fields available relating to patron information. For example, separated first and last names.
This is due the some systems relying on the information it can read from Sierra and not process further to define a first name.

The split name fields are how the information is stored in the underlying SQL tables so this seems pretty feasible and very nice to have.
