* Search for all patrons (empty search)
* No results and there is an error in the console:

Bug 31421: Do not apply library limits to Categories plugin

This patch simply changes from using 'search_with_library_limits'
to 'search'

The limits I think are intended to prevent users from setting a patron to the wrong category,
they are not meant to hide patrons. Or rather, they don't do that, patrons are returned in search
but cannot be processed. The dropdowns as well won't contain the category, so you can see these
patrons, but not filter by the category

Bug 31422 and bug 31032 point out further issues with limits.

For now, let's fix searching

To test:
1 - Edit Patron category 'Patron/PT'
2 - Try to do a patron search that returns patrons in this category
3 - See 'Processing' and error in JS console: Uncaught TypeError: categories_map[data] is undefined
4 - Apply patch
5 - Restart all and repeate
6 - It works now!

Non-limited categories is displayed in the "New patron" dropdown list

Is that correct? Yes I know I am the one who wrote bug 7919, but not the one who design it. And I have to admit I have no idea how it's supposed to work right now...

Sorry, *limited* categories.

Bug 31421: Add a limited option to template plugin

This adds a specific 'limited' routine to the Categories plugin, and uses
it for the new patron dropdowns

To test:
1 - Limit a patron category to some branches
2 - Sign in not at one of those
3 - Confirm the new patron dropdowns don't include the category
