Henri-Damien LAURENT 719280216f bug 3204: implement request signing for Amazon Web Services
After 2009-08-15, Amazon Web Services will expect that
all requests to the Product Advertising API, which is what
Koha uses for retrieving reviews and other enhanced content
from Amazon, include signatures.  This patch and
subsequenct patches implement this functionality.

What this means in practice (assuming the user has elected
to use any enhanced content from Amazon) is that

[1] The user must get a Amazon Secret Access Key.  This can
    be done by logging in to the user's AWS account
    at (e.g.) http://aws.amazon.com/, going to the 'Access Identifiers'
    page, and from there retrieving and/or creating a new Secret
    Access Key.

[2] The contents of the Secret Access Key should then be
    entered into the new AWSPrivateKey system preference.

Once that is done, grabbing reviews and table of contents from Amazon
should work as normal.  If the user doesn't do this before 2009-08-15,
reviews and TOCs will no longer be supplied from Amazon, although there
should be no crashes - the content will simply not show up.

Note that the requirement to sign requests does *NOT* appear to apply
to simply displaying book covers from Amazon.

Galen Charlton d1c1150e31 bug 3219: handle variation in Amazon responses
An Amazon ItemLookup response can sometimes have
more than one Item element, where the ones after
the first appear to be cross references to items
that have the same ISBN.  Changed parsing so that
those responses are no longer treated like pseudohashes.

This fixes the following crash:

[error] detail.pl: Pseudo-hashes are deprecated at /catalogue/detail.pl line
213., referer: /cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl

Which may lead to a nasty:
[error] Out of memory!, referer: /cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl
