At the moment Koha::Patron->first_valid_email_address mandates a precedence of
"email", then "emailpro", then "B_email".

However, when "emailpro" was "Work email", a lot of people preferred to use it
instead of "email" which was "Home email". 

The change of "email" to "Primary email" and "emailpro" to "Secondary email"
was biased towards public and academic libraries, which left a lot of special
libraries in the lurch. 

At the moment, I hard-code a change to first_valid_email_address to prefer
emailpro, but it would be good if this was just straight-up configurable in
core Koha.
