Bug 32129: Use patron category when checking if item can fill recall

This patch uses the patron category of the patron who requested the most
relevant recall to check for more specific circulation rules relating to
recalls. This ensures that patrons who are allowed to place recalls are
able to fill their recalls, especially when recalls are not generally
available for all patron categories.

To test:
1) Go to Administration -> System preferences and enable UseRecalls
2) Go to Administration -> Circulation and fines rules and set a general
All/All rule and a Category A/Itemtype A rule. All values can be set
however you like except for these recalls rules:

All/All rule:
Recalls allowed: 0
Recalls per record: 0
On shelf recalls allowed: if any unavailable

Category A/Itemtype A rule:
Recalls allowed: 5
Recalls per record: 5
On shelf recalls allowed: if any unavailable

3) Find an item of Itemtype A. Check it out to Patron A (any category).
4) Log into the OPAC as Patron B (of Category A). Find the item and
place a recall on the item.
5) Back in the staff interface, check in the item. This should trigger
the recalls process so you can allocate the item to Patron B's recall,
however the pop-up box to confirm the recall does not show. This is the
bug.

6) Apply the patch and restart services

7) Check in the item again. Confirm the pop-up box to confirm the recall
shows and you are able to allocate the item to Patron B's recall.
8) Confirm tests pass t/db_dependent/Koha/Item.t
