37861 Fix XSS vulnerability in barcode append function

This updates the misc/cronjobs/update_totalissues.pl script so that records are only modified if the number of issues changes. Previously, every record was modified - even if the number of issues did not change.
In addition, with CataloguingLog enabled, this previously added one entry to the log viewer for every record - as all the records were modified even if the number of issues did not change. Now, only records where the number of issues have changed are included in the log viewer, significantly reducing the number of entries.

This fixes updating existing item level holds for an item without a barcode. When updating an existing item level hold from "Only item No barcode" (Holds for a record > Existing holds > Details column) to "Next available", it would incorrectly change any other item level holds to "Next available".

This fixes a regression in Koha 24.05, 23.11, and 23.05 (caused by Bug 30318). Default messaging preferences for the self registraton patron category were not set for patron's self-registering using the OPAC.
This fixes the OIA set mappings form so that you can't enter more characters than the maximum length for the input fields (Field (3), Subfield (1), and Value (80)). Previously, you could enter more characters - however, when you saved the form it generated an error.
