Acq: New lineitems added to existing POs should inherit provider

[Lebbeous Fogle-Weekley]

For Evergreen 2.2+

    Jeremy Miller of the Albany Public Library in Albany, OR, reports that
    through the interface at
        Actions For This Record -> View/Place Orders
    in the staff client, when you add a lineitem to an existing PO, the new
    lineitem has a null value in the "provider" field, instead of inheriting
    the expected value from the PO.

    This causes problems for some Acquisitions workflows.

    The feature containing the bug appeared in 2.2, and this fix for it can be
    backported that far.

It looks like this is a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/969494, but since this report has a patch, I'll mark the original as the duplicate.

Tested and pushed to master, rel_2_3, and rel_2_2. Thanks.

We have experienced this bug in 2.2.0. We found and applied this patch but are still experiencing this error (No Provider). We also get the "No Provider" error at saving a PO record even though there is a Provider clearly listed in that field. Thoughts? Same or related bug? And if same, why would patch not resolve?

Many thanks,
Robin
