LP#1604515: Remove Advanced Hold Options link when part holds are expected

This branch removes the Advanced Hold Options link from the Place Hold
screen in cases where all copies on the bib record contain parts. If a user
attempts to place a metarecord hold and all other copies in the group also
contain parts, the hold will fail. By removing the link, we are removing one
potential point of failure for the user.

+Removal of Advanced Hold Options link when part holds are expected
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+If a user attempts to place a metarecord hold when all eligible copies
+contain parts, the hold will fail. To help prevent the user from reaching
+a dead end while placing holds, the _Advanced Hold Options_ link is removed
+from the Place Hold page in cases where all copies on the record contain
+parts. The _Advanced Hold Options_ link will remain for records that have
+a mix of parted and non-parted copies.
