Our library staff requested that koha automatically switch patrons when a
patron barcode is scanned into the item barcode field during circulation. They
frequently have large number of kids line up to checkout books and wanted this
feature to speed up the process.

I have implemented a patch that enables this functionality.

To test:

- Disable  the autoswitchpatron system preference. 
- Go to the "Check out" section of a patron "circ/circulation.pl"
- Enter a patron barcode into item barcode field. 
- You should get a message about the barcode not being found
- Enable autoswitchpatron preference
- Enter a patron barcode into the item barcode field
- You should be redirected to that patron's circulation page.
