Allow the libraries that appear in the preferred pickup institution dropdown for AFN resource sahring requests to be customizable
When you're submitting a hold request in an AFN, the libraries that appear in the preferred pickup institution are based on your Institutions Relations table, so it's possible to remove certain libraries in the AFN from that dropdown. Unfortunately, that isn't possible for resource sharing requests. Every single library in the AFN appears in the preferred pickup institution dropdown regardless of how the Institutions Relations table is configured. We would like the preferred pickup institution dropdown for resource sharing requests to be customizable in the same manner as the preferred pickup institution dropdown for hold requests.

The difficulty with resource sharing requests is that they may be fulfilled by any lender on the rota, so it is not possible to know in advance who will fulfill the request and then calculate the potential pickup locations based on relations.
