bibliocommons library catalogues

BPL has started to use a new system called bibliocommons and NYPL is switching, too, which means we should probably support it.

Looks like MARC is pretty easily accessible:
item URL
​http://bostonpl.bibliocommons.com/item/show/2993906042_test
MARC:
​http://bostonpl.bibliocommons.com/item/catalogue_info/2993906042_test

item URL
​http://nypl.bibliocommons.com/item/show/16346042052_du_plateau_des_glires_dresde

MARC:
​http://nypl.bibliocommons.com/item/catalogue_info/16346042052_du_plateau_des_glires_dresde

I don't know when I'll get a chance to take this on, but thanks for summarizing the requirements and such. If the MARC data were available in raw MARC format through a URL that we could craft, then we could even do this with the framework...

I just made some changes in the framework that make it possible to do something like this. We'll see how this goes. Draft translator at: ​http://github.com/ajlyon/translators/raw/master/Library%20Catalog%20%28BiblioCommons%29.js

The one issue I've noticed is that the library catalog field isn't set correctly.

The framework modifications make this a rather hybrid translator-- not sure if it doesn't make more sense to tear out the framework code, since I had to write much of it into auxiliary functions anyway.

Updated to not use Framework. Now it works better, and it's a cleaner solution than I would have written if I hadn't been trying to fit it into framework to begin with.

I pushed this to the main repository: ​https://github.com/zotero/translators/compare/610870219f...09591c404f

Looks like we're done with this one.
