Bug 38494: Koha should consider authority heading use in cataloging

In MARC 21 authority records, three bytes (008/14-16) indicate what the
heading can be used for (main/added entry, subject entry, series entry).
Koha should be able to respect the record's intended use in authority
search during cataloging, provided that the authority file is well
formed.  Also, we should be able to decide between more strict but
correct behavior and current lax behavior.

Test plan:
----------
1. Apply the patch; updatedatabase ; restart_all
2. Set the ShowHeadingUse system preference to ‘Show’
3. Go to the Cataloging editor and open the authority finder plugin for
   the 100 field. Search for Peter. With standard ktd test data you should
   get 9 results, some with ‘v’ before Main/Added Entry, some with ‘x’.
   These with ‘x’ are not to be used in this context, provided you use a
   well-formed authority file
4. Set ConsiderHeadingUse system preference to ‘Do’
5. Repeat p. 3.  You should get now only 4 Peters – those with ‘v’
   before Main/Added Entry (008/14 = ‘a’)
6. You can repeat the test for subject headings (6XX) and series
   headings (sometimes you would have to modify the test data, e.g. there
   are few authority records with 008/16 = ‘a’ (series use)
7. This should work equally with Zebra and with Elasticsearch
