Web client: Patron primary and preferred prefix and suffix do not display in patron summary

[Michele Morgan]

Patron records can store a primary name prefix and suffix as well as a preferred name prefix and suffix. None of these fields are displayed in the patron summary sidebar in the web client. In the xul client both prefix and suffix are displayed as part of the name in the patron summary.

A patron with name fields as follows:

prefix: Dr.
first_given_name: Henry
family_name: Jones
suffix: Jr.

Displays in the xul client patron summary as:

Dr. Jones, Henry Jr.

In the web client the patron summary shows:

Jones, Henry

Display of prefix and suffix can be important in distinguishing between patrons.

The patron summary display of both primary and preferred name should include the prefix and suffix.

A proposed fix is at https://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Evergreen.git;a=commit;h=55b14b6b37f6ad8879917593643876c8639db86b

As described above, the fix uses displays the patron information in the following pattern:

prefix family_name, given_name suffix

I've tested this patch and it properly displays the prefix and suffix (preferred when appropriate) in the patron summary.

My signoff branch also contains a fix for the second_given_name field, which was not displaying the primary second name if no preferred second name existed.

The branch is at:

Pushed to master, rel_3_4, rel_3_3, and rel_3_2 (3.1.x doesn't have the preferred name feature). Thanks, Garry and Michele!
