[Koha] Display subtags by default when cataloguing

[Agnes Rivers-Moore]

This looks a lot like Bug 1756 
<http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=1756>
This one has a status of resolved, /from Joshua Ferraro 
<mailto:jmf at liblime.com> 2008-07-20 09:02:14 /
I am not sure which Koha version the patch should have been in. Can 
anyone with a recent version of Koha confirm that it needs to be 
reopened? Jesse?
