             Bug #: 7243
           Summary: Do not take rentals as fines

We have set up Koha to prevent people owing more than x amount of fines. When
we issue rental items (DVDs for instance) the amount is entered as a fine so if
the patron issues more than one DVD their account is blocked until we pay the
rental amount off.

Work to do:
* C4::Members::GetMemberAccountRecords() - add another boolean parameter
$no_charges. If set to true disregard non-fine charges:
  -  Rent
  -  Res
  -  authorised_values MANUAL_INV
* C4::Circulation::CanBookBeIssued() - pass TRUE as no_charges when calling
C4::Members::GetMemberAccountRecords()

How to test:
* Set syspref noissuescharge to some small value
* Set rental charge for some item to be higher than noissuescharge
* For a patron without fines:
  -  issue an item with rental charges (above)
  -  issue another item of the same type - there should be no warnings or
stoppers
