While the hold is in pending cancellation request status (not yet processed),
it should be possible. The cancellation request entry would simply be deleted
from the newly introduced "hold_cancellation_requests" table and the hold would
continue to exist normally.

Perhaps. But I don't like a disabled button in OPAC saying "Cancellation
requested" and the fact that if a patron wanted to revert the action there is
nothing they can do other than giving the library a phone call and cause a lot
of annoying manual work for the librarians, or an angry patron if nothing could
be done.
