Web Client - Items Out and Special Circ Column Settings Should Be Separate

[Jennifer Pringle]

Evergreen 3.1

Adding/removing or resizing columns in the Items Checked Out tab changes the columns in the Other/Special Circulations tab and vice versa.

By default you may want to view different information for regular items outs than you do for and claimed returned, long overdue, and lost items.

The Non-Catalogued Circulations tab has a separate list in the column picker and so is not affected by this.

Confirmed behavior of changing the columns in Items Checked Out will also change Other/Special Circulations and vice versa. This is true for adding/removing columns, reordering columns, and resizing columns.

Also confirmed Non-Cataloged Circulations is not affected by this.

[Remington Steed (rjs7)]

At least part of the problem is that the "Items Checked Out" tab and the "Other/Special Circulations" tab use the same egGrid code (see templates/staff/circ/patron/t_items_out.tt2). Thus they end up with the same persist-key.

We might be able to give them different keys with something like this:

Changing this line:
persist-key="circ.patron.items_out"

To something like this:
persist-key="circ.patron.items_out.{{items_out_display}}"

If that works, it would result in these new persist-keys, which would need to be added to the server settings (see bug #1774707 for example, especially comments #4 and #5):

- circ.patron.items_out.main (to replace any saved "circ.patron.items_out" settings)
- circ.patron.items_out.alt

Confirmed this is still needed in 3.9
