Picking the empty option of a single-choice extra field did nothing --
in either client, on spools, filaments and vendors alike. Emptying an
integer, range, datetime or multi-choice field was just as stuck. There
was no way to get a value back to unset once it had one.
Nothing in the API could express it. A key left out of the map means
"leave it alone", and every value that could stand in for empty is
rejected by the field's type check: "" is not one of a choice field's
choices. So `extra` values now accept null, meaning the entity has no
value for that field -- no row is stored, which clears whatever was
there. Null was a 422 before it reached any logic, so nothing that used
to work behaves differently.
A filament's and a vendor's extra were also REPLACED wholesale by a
patch rather than merged per key, unlike a spool's since 28f6f8e
(v0.22.0). Anyone patching one field of a filament -- as client_v2 did
-- silently destroyed the rest of its custom fields; anyone relying on
the replacement to delete a key can now say so with null. All three
entities merge per key now, and the field descriptions say so instead
of saying nothing.
client_v2's saver was where the frontend half died: an emptied input
produced no patch at all. It sends the cleared key as null now, and
keeps sending only the keys that changed, which is what stops two people
editing different fields of one entity from overwriting each other. It
also captures the entity id when the edit is made -- the inspectors are
reused across selections rather than remounted, so a debounced patch
could otherwise land on whatever you clicked next.
The legacy client cleared a filament's or vendor's field by omitting it,
which the merge would now ignore, so its form sends null for a field
left empty. That also buys it clearing on spools, which merged (and so
ignored the omission) all along.
