One nice feature of this patch as it stands is that you can specify both
MaxFine and MaxFineIsReplacementPrice at once. If the replacement price is over
the MaxFine, it will be reduced.

To move it to the circulation matrix would require a full re-write. The
overduefinescap functions within CalcFine, rather than UpdateFine.

Perhaps we have fines logic in too many places. Maybe MaxFines logic needs to
be moved to CalcFine as well.
