[Koha] Item search

[Katrin Fischer]

Hi Elaine,

I've used the custom search fields for other things like vendor
information and notes fields successfully, but I think you are right,
that it's not working for withdrawn. I just tested on master and it
didn't work for me.

I've filed a bug:
*Bug 23847*
<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23847> -
Custom item search fields don't work for Withdrawn

In 19.11, withdrawn will be added to the standard search options and
this worked well in my tests.
