Currently Koha in the circulation and fine rules only allow one "Fine charging
interval" when putting fines on the Patron.

The enhancement suggested here in this report is to allow Koha to enter a
number of different day intervals between fines, i.e. define several "Fine
charging interval" in sequence. 

The rationale is to distribute the fines unevenly to the Patron over time.

E.g. with the new feature: 

First fine Patron after 2 days with 50 SEK then wait for 5 more days to add
second fine with 50 SEK then wait for another 7 days with 50 SEK.

If the total fined amount after the three fine periods above have not reached
the "Overdue fines cap (amount)" then repeat the last specified fine charging
interval, in this example 7 days.
