When ExpireReservesMaxPickUpDelay is set to Allow, waiting holds are
automatically cancelled by cancel_expired_holds.pl. But, generally, libraries
still need to physically remove those items from their hold shelf and check
them in to guarantee there are not pending holds or transfers to be triggered.
A report to identify these items is imperfect and cannot definitively
distinguish a hold cancelled by the cron from a hold cancelled by an employee.

Bug 14134 established behavior that displays holds which *will* be cancelled by
the next run of the cron on the "holds over" tab in Holds Awaiting Pickup, but
doesn't allow staff to see which holds have already been cancelled.

It'd be great if the cron could email a list of cancelled holds.
Additionally, reporting would be improved by the introduction of a new value in
old_reserves.found for items cancelled by the cron (maybe E for expired).
