Bug 17441: [QA Follow-up] Return value of SendAlerts

This patch makes the return value of SendAlerts more consistent.
It returns 1 on success, or undef || { error => 'msg' } on failure.
Needed to adjust one test in Letters.t too.
Adjusted one typo along the way (seleted).

Signed-off-by: Marcel de Rooy <m.de.rooy@rijksmuseum.nl>
Tested by running Letters.t.
Also tested SendAlerts from the interface with AutoEmailOpacUser and
memberentry (adding new patron).
Comment 5 Marcel de Rooy 2016-10-14 09:22:03 UTC
From Jenkins:
#   Failed test 'Successfully sent claim'
#   at t/db_dependent/Letters.t line 431.
#          got: undef
#     expected: '1'
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 74.
[15:18:31] t/db_dependent/Letters.t .................................. 

By returning 1, you will resolve this issue on Jenkins.
But the change itself is somewhat obscure now.

Looking further, we never really defined what SendAlerts should really return.
In most cases we call like: $err=SendAlerts(...)
In some cases SendAlerts warns and returns undef on an error.
Or carps and returns { error => ... }

Another line in Letters.t tests the results of SendAlerts with 
is($err2, "", "Successfully sent serial notification");

Added a follow-up to return 1 on success and add some consistency on the sendmail calls in SendAlerts. Adjusted the one line in Letters.t.
