[Koha] Renewal date calculation - Bug 2770

Hi Agnes,

There was actually a fair amount of discussion about this.  The end
result is that when this change was committed, it came with a new
system preferences, RenewalPeriodBase, that lets the administrator
choose whether to calculate the new loan period based on the date of
renewal or based on the current due date.  I've updated the bug to
make this clear.

Regards,

Galen
