Minor stuff

Investigate test failure for Bug 30035 - Wrong month name in numbering pattern

Patchsets analyzed but not backported: 51

This plus the backported patches gives and idea of the stream of patches to process.

Not backported due to one of the following:

severity too low considering this is the oldoldstable branch of Koha, quick analysis
missing dependencies/not affecting my branch
not enough benefits compared to the risks of regression

Release maintenance of 20.11.x branch

Backport attempts: 1

Some time needed to determine whether it impacts 21.05 or the feasibility of the backport. And also attempts to backport not possible due to code conflicts.

QA

Notes:

An attempt results in feedback provided on the bug. To ask if I correctly followed the test plan due to results that I couldn't interpret. Or if there is indeed an issue.
Partial QA is a way to contribute to a ticket that I can't QA alone but for which I can apply the test plan and run the QA script. Leaving the functional or code review for someone knowing that area.

Found issues: Bug 17787 - Hidden items included in count of search results

Bug 30950 - timepicker.inc is no longer used and should be removed

Some security bug: review fix and assess if there is really a security issue in the 1st place

Some security bug (same as above): validate

Signoffs (testing submitted patches so they can move on to be integrated)

Note: an attempt usually results in feedback provided on the bug. To ask if I correctly followed the test plan due to results that I couldn't interpret. Or if there is indeed an issue.
