I think you should simply reuse the parse_author function that you removed in swh-loader-core!70 (closed).

It handles a lot of author strings format and is properly tested.

Its purpose was to handle all the weird things that you can find in package.json files in the wild.

The goal is to phase out name and email from the model/storage and push it to frontends, and this is the simplest way to preserve compatibility with non-NPM sources in case there are parentheses in the name.
