Bug 17483: Forgiving charge should apply to item's last fine.

When returning an item with a fine, if the Forgive checkbox is clicked, this
forgives
    the first accountline associated to the item/user, not the current/latest
as it should.

    Scenario (Real world):
    - A patron returns a book late, ensuring a 5$ fine.  Does not pay it.
    - The patron borrows the book again 3 months later.  Gets late again, and
fined 2$.
    - Great timing: The library offers amnesty for a week.  Bring back your
book and we'll forget that they're late.
    - On checkin, the librarian clicks "Forgive overdue charges" and scan the
book.
    - Koha cancels the 3-months-ago 5$ fine.

    Test scenario:
    - Find a user with an unpaid fine (accounttype = 'FU' in db) on a returned
item.
    - Checkout the same item for the same user.
    - CHOICE 1: - Force it being late by modifying the date_due to last year.
                - Run fines.pl to generate another fine.
    - CHOICE 2: - Create directly another accountlines entry in the DB with the
same info
                - You may change the amounts to help differentiate
    - Go to the returns.pl screen, check the Forgive checkbox.  Return the
item.
    - Look at the DB, the first line got paid.  Not the latest one.
    - APPLY THE PATCH
    - Redo scenario, this time the latest entry (by the timestamp column) is
paid.
