Bug Description

In the Web Client Bucket View tab, there is a nice column called "Title" that displays the title of the bucket entry, along with a link that opens up the appropriate catalog record.

However, the Record Query and Pending Records tabs don't have this column. It's especially helpful to have in the Query tab, since sometimes the most effective way to tell two entries apart is to open them both and view the actual records.

This is on Evergreen 3.1. I've attached screenshots of both the Bucket View and Record Query tabs.

A view from the Record Query tab, without a title column that links to the catalog

I think the record query, pending and bucket views should have all title columns available in the column picker. The record query is a very handy tool for pulling together all the records that match a particular search and then exporting them as CSV to open in a spreadsheet or other program, but for this to be useful all title fields need to be available. Of course you can achieve this by moving them into a bucket, but if all you want to do is export them, creating the bucket, moving the titles and deleting the bucket are extra steps that shouldn't be necessary.

A proposed patch that mimics bucket view is here: http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Evergreen.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/user/gcollum/LP1770246_linked_title_field_in_query_and_pending_buckets

The title links in the query and pending grids open the catalog record in a new tab, so as not to lose the query data.

Pushed to master, rel_3_2, and rel_3_1, along with a follow-up to add the icon signifying that the link will open the record in a new tab. Thanks, Garry and Jane!
