Bug 35918: Fix auto library connect (AutoLocation)

This code is a bit weird, its purpose it to auto select the library depending on the IP.
A problem appears if the same IP is used, then the user's choice will
might be overwritten randomly by another library.

To recreate the problem:
Turn on AutoLocation
Use koha/koha @CPL for test
And the following config:
*************************** 1. row ***************************
branchcode: CPL
branchname: Centerville
  branchip: 172.18.0.1
*************************** 2. row ***************************
branchcode: FFL
branchname: Fairfield
  branchip: 172.18.0.1
*************************** 3. row ***************************
branchcode: FPL
branchname: Fairview
  branchip: 172.18.0.4

Connect and select CPL. Randomly FFL will be picked instead.

Tested this on top of 35890 and 35904 because git bz said they were required dependencies.
Figured out the IP Koha was seeing me as coming from in /var/log/koha/kohadev/plack.log.
Added that IP to the branchip for Centerville, Fairfield and Fairview. Set AutoLocation = Yes.
After this I could recreate the problem: If i left the "Library" field in the login screen
at "My Library" I got logged into a random library selected from the three i had set
branchip for. Applying the patches fixed this, as expected.
Tests pass, with AutoLocation off.
