The routine checkHighHolds uses CanItemBeReserved to count the number of
available items, however, since we must pass the current borrower and check
their ability to hold the items, many of the checks in that routine are not
necessarily applicable. Additionally the count of holds on the record may be
inaccurate:

1 - The borrowers own holds shouldn't be counted - if I am getting several
books for a book group or a number of dvds in a set I shouldn't shorten my own
loan period
2 - My hold limits may prevent me from placing more holds, but are not relevant
in determining if the item is in high demand
3 - My fines may prevent me from placing holds, but shouldn't shorten my loan
period
4 - If 6 patrons from another library who can't hold my libraries items have
holds on their libraries item, my loan period shouldn't be decreased as they
can't get my item anyways
5 - etc.
