Due to massively incorrect data in the default authority frameworks,
we were getting warnings about undefined values and spaces from checking
which tab subfields/fields were displayed in. This patch eliminates those
warnings.

This patch gives Koha the ability to merge authority records using the
same interface used by bibliographic records, though slightly different
methods for selecting which records to merge. The two ways to select
records are as follows:
1) Records can be selected from authority search results by clicking
the "Merge" link for two records.
2) Authority records can be merged from the reservoir by clicking the
merge-related links in the Manage staged MARC batch screen.
To test:
1) Apply patch.
2) Do a search for an authority record that will turn up multiple
identical records (or at least two records that you don't mind
merging).
3) Click the "Merge" link for the first record.
4) Click the "Merge" link for the second record.
5) Choose which fields from which record you want to appear in the
resulting record.
6) Confirm that those are the fields that exist in the resulting record.
7) Stage an authority record (for example, an authority record you
saved from your catalog.
8) Search for a record to merge with it using the "Search for a record
to merge in a new window" link.
9) Merge these records, confirming that the resulting record (after
going through the entire merging process) matches your expectations.
10) Set up a matching rule for authorities, and export an authority from
your catalog that will match based on that rule. For MARC21, the
following is a good choice for a rule:
Matching rule code: AUTHPER
Description: Personal name main entry
Match threshold: 999
Record type: Authority record
[Match point 1:]
Search index: mainmainentry
Score: 1000
Tag: 100
Subfields: a
11) Stage the record you just exported, choosing the matching rule you
just created.
12) Merge the record using the "Merge" link, confirming that the
resulting record (after going through the entire merging process)
matches your expectations.

Testing notes on last patch in series.
Signed-off-by: Galen Charlton <gmc@esilibrary.com>
Koha's MARC framework structure doesn't assign tags to tabs in
the cataloging editor; only subfields are assigned to tabs, and
the field as a whole follows the subfields.
Consequently, for the purpoase of calculating a merge hash, a field
should be added either if no MARC framework information is passed
(which signals that the caller wants to deal with the entire MARC
record) or if any of its subfields are assigned to visible tabs.
This patch has the effect of getting rid of the following spurious
warnings from the Apache log:
merge.pl: Argument "" isn't numeric in numeric ge (>=) at /home/gmc/koha/Koha/Util/MARC.pm line 78

This follow-up moves all the MARC-specific functionality of Koha::Record
(now renamed to Koha::MetadataRecord) to a Koha::Util::MARC utility class.
To test, run relevant unit tests:
> prove t/Koha_MetadataRecord.t t/Koha_Util_MARC.t t/db_dependent/Koha_Authority.t
and optionally try to merge a record.
