fast-import format declares 'committer_name SP' to be optional. But SP between empty or not name and a email is obligatory and checked by git-fsck, so fast-import must prepend the SP if the name is omitted. Currently it doesn't. Name cannot contain LT or GT and ident always comes after SP in fast-import. So reuse that SP as if a valid 'SP <email>' ident was passed. This fixes a ident parsing bug for a well-formed fast-import input. Though the parsing is still loose and can accept a ill-formed input.
