[JENKINS-52511] Plugin not providing values for GIT_COMMITTER_NAME and GIT_AUTHOR_NAME

I tried to extract  GIT_COMMIT and GIT_COMMITTER_NAME values in my declarative pipeline, I can get value for GIT_COMMIT but values for GIT_COMMITER_NAME is missing.

Following are steps to extract 

```
echo "Git Commit $GIT_COMMIT"
echo "Env Git Name ${env.GIT_COMMITTER_NAME}"
echo "Env Git Author Name ${env.GIT_AUTHOR_NAME}"
echo "Git Author Name $GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
echo "Git Commiter Name $GIT_COMMITTER_NAME"

```

For ${env.GIT_COMMITTER_NAME} its giving null

For $GIT_COMMITTER_NAME or $GIT_AUTHOR_NAME its throwing following error

```
groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: GIT_AUTHOR_NAME for class: groovy.lang.Binding

```

Global variable is also set

I verified on my machine

$ git config --global user.name
