Note: The notice is not automatically updated for existing installations. Update the notice manually to change the wording if required, or replace the default notice using "View default" and "Copy to template" if you have not customized the notice.

BUG 39279: Updated the wording for the overdue notice from branch to library for new installs.

Test plan
1. Go to 'Tools' then 'Notices and slips' and choose the 'Overdue notice'
2. The overdue message should now include the word library (only on a new install).

4. Check that the updated ODUE notice has changed 'branch' to 'library'
   by either:
   4.1 Resetting everything: reset_all

   The updated text is now: "Please return or renew your overdue items
   at the library as soon as possible."

Thanks for the patch Courtney, nice work!

I've updated the commit message (see the commit message guidelines at https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Commit_messages). I've changed the title, added a description of the issue, and expanded the test plan.

I've also added a draft release note.
