Not sure if this is a bug or just me misunderstanding the options

- Make sure OPACAllowUserToChooseBranch is set to don't allow
- Make sure you have two branches A and B
- Have one item whose homebranch is B
- Have one user whose homebranch is A
- Make sure the circulation rules allow the user to reserve the item's item
type

1. Go to Administration > Circulation and fines rules
2. Create a Default holds policy by item type for that item type
    - Item type = item's item type
    - Hold policy = From any library
    - Hold pickup library branch = item's home library
    - Return policy = item returns home
3. Go to the OPAC and log in with the user's credentials
4. Search for the item
5. Click on "Place hold"
6. Confirm hold
7. In the user's file on the OPAC and check the reservation's pickup library

What I understand :
- Hold policy = From any library: Users from any library can reserve this item
type
- Hold pickup library branch = item's home library: the pickup library must be
the item's homebranch (in this case, B)
- Return policy = item returns home: upon return, the items is transferred to
its homebranch

Therefore, the pickup library in the case above should be B, but it is
automatically set to A.

P.S. note that I have item-level_itypes set to specific item, and Item level
holds set to don't allow. I feel like in this case it should maybe fall back to
the record-level item type?
