Enables the library to choose whether to have patrons scan their barcodes for self checkout, or login
with username and password. Uses 'checkpw' for compatibility with LDAP authentication.
Also introduces a few new system preferences to make Self Checkout more secure and manageable:
SelfCheckTimeOut: the number of seconds before the self-checkout login times out for a patron
AllowSelfCheckReturns: indicate whether or not patrons can return materials via self-checkout
SelfCheckHelpMessage: user-configurable HTML to show specific text on the Help page.
Thank you to Marlboro College in Marlboro, VT for sponsoring and testing this development!

~ vestigial broken scripts and templates removed
~ meaningless dependencies removed
~ Focus handling issues resolved for cross-browsers
~ Timeout only invoked for non-first screen. This keeps the refresh from
flooding the logs continuously for no purpose.
~ two halves of "validuser" conditional linked in TMPL
~ elsif's used for $op conditionals
The focus should now appear on the "Return to Account Summary" button during errors.
The user can scan anything (w/ carriage return) and get back to the first screen.
Also, special functionality is added for the magic barcode "__KOHA_NEW_CIRC__".
This effectively ends the patron session and logs them out so the next patron can begin.
The purpose is for patrons to avoid having to use a keyboard at all, if libraries
print and have this special barcode available for patrons at the SCO station.
Enhancement was requested by Plano Independent School District.

HTML::Template is no more used, some were remaining,
fixing the "use ...;" to H::T::Pro only
