Description

The "save to list" feature needs to be implemented in the Summon module (both on search results and record view pages). If possible, to avoid redundant code, the save action should be implemented using the shared list Javascript functionality found in web/js/ajax_common.js. We also need to make sure that results saved in this fashion display correctly when lists are viewed in the MyResearch module.

This is more complicated than it seems at first glance -- the MyResearch side of the problem requires multiple search result lists to be merged together in order to allow sorting, paging, etc... unless we want to split the list view into multiple tabs for Solr vs. Summon results (easier to code but clunkier as a UI).

A major complication: Summon does not have persistent IDs. Since records can change at any time on the Summon side, there is not a practical way to maintain tags on the VuFind end.
