           Summary: Add ability to delay loading of patron's checkouts in

Now that a patron's checkouts are loaded asynchronously, we can further improve
Koha's performance by not loading the checkouts table when it is not needed.
For example, if a librarian is checking out 5 items to a patron, we really
don't need to load the table during the scanning of items 1 to 4, just for item
5. Another example would be browsing to the patron details table in order to
change a patron's password.

I propose we add two separate system preferences to add a timer for loading the
patron's checkouts table, one for circulation and one for patron details. That
way a library can choose to have enough delay so that most librarians can scan
items repeatedly without loading the checkouts table, and can have the patron
details table load more quickly if they wish. In addition, setting one or both
timeouts to 0 will cause the system to act as it currently does.
