Negative notforloan statuses should allow holds to be placed but not captured.

Due to coronavirus, we have libraries setting all returned materials to a
negative notforloan value of Quarantine for several days. They're using
UpdateNotForLoanStatusOnCheckin to set that status automatically. However,
those items are still capturing for holds, even though those items cannot be
checked out until the notforloan status is removed.

In cases like an On Order item where we do want the hold to fill at checkin,
UpdateNotForLoanStatusOnCheckin should be used to clear that notforloan status
so the hold can fill.
