The script that returns data for the patron autocomplete does not use C4::Members::Search. Instead it uses bespoke code that does not behave like the traditional search and is very limited in how it can search.
If, for example, I search for "Kyle Hall" in the standard search, I would get "Kyle Hall" back as a result. For the autocomplete search, I will not.
This script should use C4::Members::Search to provide better searching and to keep the code base DRY.
Test Plan:
1) Enable the system preference CircAutocompl
2) Create a user with the first name "Test" and the surname "User"
3) Perform a checkout autocomplete search for "Test User"
4) Note you do not get the user as a result
5) Apply this patch
6) Try different combinations of "Test" and "User" such as
Test User
User Test
U Test
Test U
etc.
7) Note these searches now work
Works as expected.
