           Summary: Koha generates new subscription item even when it's
                    not necessary

When receiving a subscription item, Koha will assume that you want to create a
new subscription item (which will be put in the "expected" status) every time.

How to reproduce this:

1. Someone accidentally changes something to "received" and then changes it
back to "expected". -> a new item in subscriptions has been generated
2. Now we go and change that accidentally changed item back to "received". -> a
new item in subscriptions has been generated
3. Now there is two new items waiting to be received. Normally there should be
just one.
4. and what if someone changes the status 10 times accidentally to received..
Then there would be 10 new items waiting with the status "expected".

Also when you add the last item of that specific subscription period Koha
shouldn't generate the maybe future subscriptions item there. There is a huge
bug(?) in the C4::Serials::abouttoexpire(), so fixing this might be difficult.
The bug is that originally periodic subscription has been changed to
non-periodic in the renewal phase and then it doesn't take that account.
