Bug 21349: Instructors with special characters in cardnumber cannot be removed
from course reserves

The cardnumber can contain strange non-javascript-friendly
characters. This patch converts all the internal references
to borrowernumber, but displays the cardnumber when showing
list of matching users.

TEST PLAN
---------
1) Make sure Course Reserves is being used. Check system preferences.
2) Make sure there is a Course entered.
3) Make sure there is a patron with an cardnumber which breaks
   the existing javascript (eg. Ka-boom:Ka-boom!KABOOM@#$!)
4) Go into the course list.
5) Click the course name link
6) In the "Instructor Search" box enter the patron name.
7) Select the patron which has the ugly cardnumber.
8) Click Save
   -- The course listing should have the new teacher listed.
9) Click the course name link again.
10) Click 'Remove' beside the instructor's name.
    -- nothing happens, and inspecting the error console gives
       you the ugly error described in comment #0
11) apply this patch
12) restart_all
13) sudo service apache2 restart
14) refresh the page.
15) click 'Remove' beside the instructor's name.
    -- name is removed.
16) Click Save
    -- the course listing no longer lists the new teacher.
17) Actually confirm that adding and removing others normally
    works as expected.
18) run koha qa test tools.
