Add <ExternalIdentifiers> to <Person> object. #11

For similar applications that "ExternalIdentifiers" is used for "Candidate", "Party", "Office", etc, it would be useful to have "ExternalIdentifiers" be a property of "Person" as well. While "Candidate" already has this field, "Person" can represent election officials and party leaders as well.

For reasons I can't remember, it was already added to Person. We removed the wrapper element so it's now just ExternalIdentifier.

Sorry about that -- I was checking the v1 schema -- I should have checked v2. Thanks!
