    This patch replaces carriage return with <br /> in the content of
    hold notices for printing. This is necessary to convert html file
    into well formatted pdf file.

Test plan :
  - checkin an item reserved by a borrower
    that has not activated email notification
  - verify in message_queue table that you've got a
    new HOLD_PRINT notice with status 'pending'
  - run gather_print_notices.pl <directory>

Without the patch, the script generates a html file without <br /> tags.
If you run printoverdues.sh <directory>, the text in the resulting pdf file
is all on one line

With the patch, the script generates a html file with <br/> tags and
pdf file created by printoverdues.sh is well formatted.
