Bug 32256: Enable batch checkout using self-checkout

This patch allows more than one item to be scanned and processed at once in
Koha's self-checkout module. The items in the batch will still be handled
one-by-one, so if any item in the batch requires confirmation (i.e. to be
renewed or returned) or is impossible to check out, the process will stop at
that item. Any items earlier in the list will be processed, but any items
coming after in the list will be ignored. This feature uses the existing
BatchCheckouts and BatchCheckoutsValidCategories system preferences to
determine if batch checkouts should be allowed.

To test:
1) Open the staff interface. Go to Koha Administration -> Global system
preferences. Search for "BatchCheckouts". Confirm BatchCheckouts syspref is
disabled, and no categories are selected for the BatchCheckoutsValidCategories
syspref.
2) In another tab, open the OPAC self checkout (found out
OPACBaseURL/cgi-bin/koha/sco/sco-main.pl) and log in
3) Confirm the self-checkout works as normal for checking out, returning or
renewing one item at a time
4) Go back to the staff interface tab (you may need to log back in). Enable the
BatchCheckouts syspref but leave the BatchCheckoutsValidCategories syspref
empty.
5) Refresh the OPAC self checkout tab. The barcode input field will now be
bigger to support a list of barcodes. Enter a list of barcodes separated by
newlines and Submit.
6) Only the first barcode should be processed. This is because no categories
are valid for BatchCheckouts.
7) Go back to the staff interface tab (you may need to log back in). Select at
least your patron category for the BatchCheckoutsValidCategories syspref and
Save.
8) Refresh the OPAC self checkout tab. Enter a list of barcodes separated by
newlines and Submit. Confirm all valid items are checked out as expected.
9) Test with a few items that are notforloan or would not be valid checkouts.
Confirm they are not checked out, but other valid items in the batch are
checked out successfully.
10) Test with a batch where one of the items is already checked out to the
patron. The batch should get blocked at this item as the self-checkout asks for
confirmation.
11) Test with both renewing and returning of items that are already checked out
to the patron. This will only work with one item at a time and later items in
the list will be ignored.
