Merging duplicate patrons in succession is adding previously merged duplicates
into the merge options.

To Recreate:
1. Self-register Patron A multiple times through the OPAC.
2. Self-register Patron B multiple times through the OPAC.
3. Search for Patron A and merge some of the duplicates.
4. Search for Patron B and select some of the duplicates.

On the next screen selected Patron B duplicates will be shown as well as the
previously merged account of Patron A.

5. Select a Patron B account as the surviving record and proceed to merge.

Patron B accounts are merged to the surviving record as well as Patron A's
account, causing Patron A to no longer exist.

The current work around is to log out of the staff account and log back in.
This seems to clear the session data and allow the proper selections to appear,
minus the previously merged account. However, this is not practical when
needing to merge a lot of accounts.
