There have been clear instances, even with Sentry employees, where hidden GitHub emails prevent us from resolving the actual person responsible for an issue. Here we attempt to fuzzy-match names (newly emitted by the Smart Assignment agent in https://github.com/getsentry/seer/pull/8185) and email addresses to users in the database, with some hopefully-comprehensive regexes that match across email domains, added/missing middle names/initials, various separators, etc.
If even 2 users match the input, we give up fuzzy matching. Better to not match than to match the OTHER John Smith.
For now, we log the results and don't actually use the fuzzy match. I want to monitor the results carefully and only enable if they look solid.
