Bug 24625: Store showLastPatron information using localStorage
This patch removes the use of jquery.cookie to store "last patron"
information, using localStorage instead. jquery.cookie.js is obsolete.
See Bug 24624.
localStorage has been chosen as an alternative in this situation because
it does not require transmission between the client and the server. See
Bug 12410.
Because there is no "session only" option with localStorage, additional
handling of the showLastPatron data is added to the login page. That
takes care of "stale" last patron information if user didn't log out but
the session expired for some reason.
To test apply the patch and enable the showLastPatron system preference.
1. Load a patron's account for checkout
2. Navigate away from patron-related pages: Perform a catalog search
from the search header form and open the detail page from the search
results. Confirm that the correct last patron information still
shows.
3. Load another patron's account for checkout
- There should now be a "Last patron" link in the breadcrumbs bar
which links to the patron in step 1. Hovering your mouse over the
link should display a tooltip containing the patron's name and
card number.
- Click the "X" to clear the last patron information. The last
patron link should go away.
4. Log out and log back in. The last patron information should be gone.
