Subject: [PATCH] Bug 16441: Do not use a package variable to cache
 C4::Letters::getletter
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

C4::Letters::getletter use a package variable (%letter) to cache letter
returned by the subroutine.
I have not found any direct issues caused by that but it is safer to
remove it.
It won't be a big deal to hit the DBMS to get a valid letter when
needed.

No test plan here, just confirm that the changes make sense.

Confirm that performance loss is just a millisecond or so per
subsequent call of getletter.
