Bibliography: edited volumes show editors' initials first #13

Firstly, thanks for this great package!

I'm outputting a reference list at the end of my papers, and everything looks good, except that edited volumes display their editors' initials before the surnames, unlike all other items which show the latter first. See the second item below:

I've read the documentation and can't see any obvious option regarding this layout. Is it by design, or something I can change?

I notice the same phenomenon in the package's documentation on p. 91:

From a quick look at the OSCOLA specification, it appears to be silent on this issue.

I 'fixed' it by changing the order on line 72 of oscola.bbx from given-family to family-given, to match the default on line 71, but that of course also affects editors' names in @incollection citations.
