The cardnumber field in the Patron record is currently limited to 16
characters.
We do not use patron cards. We prefer to use the user's email address as the
card number as it is unique to that person and they can remember this. 
However the domain section of our work email for one of our sites is 14
characters before prefixing it with firstname.lastname

Therefore when saving the record this truncates after the first 16 characters.
We would like the cardnumber field length to be extended, say to 40 characters
