[Koha] Exclude users from search (check out)

[Katrin Fischer]

Hi,

when a patron is deleted the borrowernumber in old_issues is set to NULL 
and the entries in statistics are kept, so the entries will still be 
there, only not linked to an existing patron.

For data privacy reasons you should not keep patron records 
indefinitely. It's possible to delete expired patron accounts regularly 
using the delete_patrons.pl cronjob or do it manually using the batch 
patron deletion/anonymization tool.

Maybe run some tests with a test patron to see how deleting affects your 
data?

Hope that helps,

Katrin
