Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick c086992f4f cmd/tailscale/cli: add whoami subcommand
Add a "tailscale whoami" subcommand that is equivalent to running
"tailscale whois $(tailscale ip -4)" but more ergonomic. It supports
the --json flag just like whois, and shares the WhoIsResponse
rendering code with whois.

Fixes #19907
