[PASSED QA] Bug 8438: Users can only claim for serials related to their branch.

Only superlibrarian users and users with superserials permission
can override this limitation.

This patch adds a new subroutine C4::Serials::can_claim_subscription.

Signed-off-by: Paola Rossi <paola.rossi at cineca.it>

The upgrading of the DB was as required:
for each [PT/S] patron with the permission "claim_serials" ON,
the permission "superserials" became[/was kept to] ON.

Then, after having checked the DB upgrading, to test the currently
adding limitation:
> Users can only claim for serials related to their branch
, I reset 2 PT/S patrons-users to:
permission claim_serials: YES
permission superserials: NO
and I set the syspref "IndependendeBranches" to "Prevent".

For:
> Only superlibrarian users can override this limitation.
the S patron-user could list AND claim:
A) subscriptions of his own branch,
B) subscriptions of other branch,
C) subscriptions without branch.

For:
> Only users with superserials permission can override this limitation.
the PT patron-user could list:
A) subscriptions of his own branch,
B) subscriptions of other branch,
C) subscriptions without branch,
and could claim only:
A) subscriptions of his own branch,
C) subscriptions without branch.

NB: a subscription is selected to be claimed.

Then I set the syspref "IndependendeBranches" to "Don't prevent".
The behaviour was [exactly the same as in master] without the added
limitation.

On [S/PT] patrons, if permission claim_serials was NO, no Claims
link was available on Serials' page, either under "Prevent" or under
"Don't prevent".

Added the results of Paola's testing to the commit message
as test plan.

Note to RM: Maybe we could add a note to the release notes, that
Koha now enforces superserials with independent branches better,
so people might have to adapt permissions in order to claim
for other branches.
