Bug 19452: [17.11.x] Remove the truncate option

The truncate option is not really useful. Its result is probably not what
most users of this script expect or need.
It truncates both tables borrower_message_preferences and
borrower_message_transport_preferences. This (unfortunately) includes
deleting messaging preferences for patron categories. After that, adding
preferences again will not add categories again, but only borrower
preferences which are all disabled.

Furthermore, we do not need to disable the foreign key check. Neither
do we actually need to truncate, deleting records seems sufficient.
Also deleting transport preferences is not needed, since it will be
done by a cascade from messaging preferences. Note that the subsequent
call of SetMessagingPreferencesFromDefaults will already delete the
records.

This makes it possible to remove the truncate option altogether.

Test plan:
[1] Select a patron category (say ST) and change days_in_advance to x.
[2] Select a ST patron and set days_advance to y in his msg prefs.
[3] Run borrowers-force-messaging-defaults.pl -doit
[4] Verify that the patron has been reset to the default prefs (incl.
    value x in days_in_advance).
[5] Verify that the patron category prefs are still intact.
