Many SIP services send an empty password field (AD). Even if allow_empty_passwords is enabled for the given SIP account, this empty password is run though Koha's password checker which increments the number of login attempts for a patron. Thus repeated patron information requests can lock a patron out! Empty password fields in SIP should not call for a password check if allow_empty_passwords is enabled.
Test Plan:
1) Enable a patron password attempt with a limit of 3
2) Send 4 patron information requests with an empty AD field
3) Note the patron's account is now locked
4) Apply this patch
5) Repeat step 2 with a different patron
6) Note the patron's account does not get locked!

README for Open NSIP 3M-SIP Server
DEPENDENCIES
SIPServer is written entirely in Perl, but it require these CPAN
perl modules to run:
Net::Server - The SIP server is a Net::Server::Prefork server
XML::LibXML
XML::Parser
XML::Simple - for parsing the config file
UNIVERSAL::require - for loading the correct ILS interface module
Clone - for running the test cases
LOGGING
SIPServer uses syslog() for status and debugging messages. All
syslog messages are logged using the syslog facility 'local6'.
If you need to change this, because something else on your system
is already using that facililty, just change the definition of
'LOG_SIP' at the top of the file SIPServer.pm
Make sure to update your syslog configuration to capture facility
'local6' and record it.
