This patch adds a new field 'preferred_name' to the patron record.
On storage (creation or update) the preferred_name is set to the firstname if no
value is passed. Patron modifications will set the preferred name to the firstname if
the preferred_name field is hidden
With this patchset preferred_name will always be set - either to the firstname, or a specified value.
PatronAutoComplete/ysearch is updated to use 'preferred_name'
To test:
1 - Apply patches
2 - Update database and restart all, clear browser cache
