OPAC suppression was already available for a bib record, but not on an
individual item. This patch tries to create this functionality. In order to
accomplish this, we added a suppress field to the items table by running the
following SQL:

  ALTER TABLE items ADD suppress tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 AFTER wthdrawn;

A new authorised value category named I_SUPPRESS was also created with a binary
option of 0 - Not Suppressed (blank in authorised_value.description) |1 -
Suppressed. The items.suppress field was then linked to the MARC 952$i field
and the I_SUPPRESS authorised value.

In addition, we added the following to the three Zebra configuration files.

ZEBRADIR=~/koha-dev/etc/zebradb $ZEBRADIR/biblios/etc/bib1.att:att 8033
suppress $ZEBRADIR/ccl.properties:suppress 1=8033
$ZEBRADIR/marc_defs/marc21/biblios/record.abs:melm 952$i suppress,suppress:n

The Koha maintenance utility sync_items_in_marc_bib.pl also needed to be run to
sync the items table to the MARC record. Finally, an index rebuild (i.e.,
rebuild_zebra.pl) was performed. We aren't sure if at least one item needed to
be suppressed for the indexing to work correctly; however, for testing, we did
set at least one item to be suppressed before we ran rebuild_zebra.pl.
