bibliographic record to use for testing

To replicate:

Ensure the authority module is setup and configured.

AutoLinkBiblios is set to DO
CatalogModuleRelink is set to DO
LinkerKeepStale is set to Don't
LinkerRelink is set to Do
AuthorityMergeLimit is set to 50
AuthorityMergeMode is loose
AutoCreateAuthorities is don't generate

1. Have a bibliographic record with an authority for a personal name that
includes a date. Have a corresponding authority record that does not include
the date in the authority. (examples uploaded).
2. Edit the bibliographic record in the basic editor.
3. Use the tag editor to search for the authority and link it to the authority
record.
4. See the authority record number in subfield 9. Also notice the authority
record is not updated to remove the date.
5. Save the record.
6. View the bibliographic record in the normal view and see the authority link
was not saved.

Repeat the above steps, but use the Advanced Editor instead. Notice the
authority heading is updated in the editor to match the authority record. Save
and see the authority link is correctly saved.

I would expect the basic editor to behave the same as the Advanced Editor.
Tested this in 24.05, 23.11, and 23.05.

Also tested with setting LinkerKeepStale set to DO. With this enabled the link
created in the Basic Editor will be retained, but the heading will not be
updated. The heading will still be updated in the Advanced Editor.

There are likely a few different things happening. The primary thing to note is
the difference in behavior between the basic and advanced editors when manually
linking. Whether the heading is updated or not may be a matter of preference.
Regardless, the link should have been saved in the basic editor.
