Perl module libnet-ident-perl added to OE

Continuing to fix EasyShare. It calls /usr/sbin/ident-user-enum.pl; however, I found that it is missing the Net::Ident module.
There is no recipe for it in OpenEmbedded/Yocto, so I had to create it. Github commit:
https://github.com/bkauler/oe-qky-dunfell/commit/9b91c0027f475ef5687a0e89a6673e7ca04ced87
Tested ident-user-enum.pl, it now works.
The perl script is used to obtain the netbios name on another
computer on the LAN. The other computer will be running 'fakeidentd'
daemon, that will serve the netbios name. This is an alternative to
samba's nmbd.
