When making a new search or navigating the search result pages,
catalogue/search.pl->browser.js generates a search cursor cookie for every page
change or search. When 30+ search/page change -actions are done, browser has
collected 30+ search cursor cookies.

This causes the HTTP-header to bloat and get rejected by apache2. User needs to
reset cookies to get rid of this issue and be able to continue using Koha.

- SOLUTION -
------------

Name searchCookies (search cursor cookies) as "scs_<timestamp>" and remove the
3 oldest cookies if more than 15 searchCookies are present.
