Better solution:  A new system preference, AllowReturnToBranch, and a
subroutine in C4/Circulation to leverage it.

Possible syspref values:

homebranch
holdingbranch (which would correspond to the issuing branch)
homebranch OR holdingbranch <== default if IndependantBranches is ON
anywhere <== default if IndependantBranches is OFF (and for fresh installs)

New C4::Circulation::CanReturnToBranch subroutine
Takes in $item object and current branch

Returns two values:  1 if return is allowed or 0 if return is forbidden, and
the allowed return branch (defaults to homebranch is option is 'homebranch or
holdingbranch')

Change the conditional in AddReturn to consult this subroutine instead of
comparing $branch to $hbr and looking for IndependantBranches syspref.
