The GetBorrowerAttributes subroutine return the attributes for a given
patron.
Using get_extended_attributes we can acchieve it easily. The problematic
here is to restore the method's name (value vs attribute,
value_description vs description of the authorised value, as well as
display_checkout that should not be a method of Attribute, but
Attribute::Type instead)
value_description was used when the attribute types were attached to an
authorised value category. To avoid the necessary test in template and
controller there is now a $attribute->description method that will
display either the attribute's value OR the value of the authorised
value when needed. We should certainly use this one from few other
places.
Notes:
* This patch rename Koha::Patron->attributes with Koha::Patron->get_extended_attributes.
It will be renamed with Koha::Patron->extended_attributes in ones of the next
patches when it will become a setter as well.
* GetBorrowerAttributes did not care about the library limits, we still
do not
* The opac_only flag was not used outside of test, we drop it off.
* To maintain the existing behavior we add a default order-by clause to
the search method [code, attribute]
* From C4::Letters::_parseletter we always display the staff description
of the AV, There is now a FIXME to warn about it
* FIXMEs are not regressions, existing behaviors must be kept
* TODO add a new check to bug 21010 to search for inconsistencies in
patron's attributes attached to non-existent authorised values
* One test has been updated in Modifications.t, order_by is now
by default set to ['code', 'attribute']
