Booking : Add Patron Search to Create Reservation

[Christine Burns]

Wishlist request

add a link to patron search UI on the Booking: Create Reservation screen beside patron barcode

Depends on https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1816475

Requires an Angular patron search UI component. (possibly in 3.3??)

A note that Bill Erickson created an Angular component called <eg-patron-search> -- it would provide just the desired behavior. It's available in Evergreen 3.5, see bug 1859241.
