Describe the bug

#6024 prevents identities with whitespace from being used - but existing identities that had been created with whitespace now no longer can be accessed.

Steps To Reproduce

1. hit the https://api.bullet-train.io/api/v1/identities/?identifier=xxx%20xxx endpoint
2. endpoint returns the Identifier can only contain unicode letters, numbers, and the symbols: ! # $ %% & * + / = ? ^ _ { } | ~ @ . -` error

Expected behavior

Provide some way of updating all identities or allow whitespace
