Bug Description
When dealing with a pre-cataloged item, we want the "dummy" title and author displayed. Once a pre-cataloged item is turned into a "real" copy, we should no longer display the dummy_title and dummy_author fields.
Currently, in the staff client when checking out a FORMERLY pre-cataloged item to a patron, the dummy_title and dummy_author fields are displayed in place of the title and author from the mvr.
Other displays in the staff client appear fine.
Short of setting dummy_title and dummy_author to null for records where call_number <> -1, we can fix this by checking the copy's call number ID before overriding the mvr title/author in Open-ILS/
A trigger for clearing dummy_title and dummy_author whenever a copy moved from call_number -1 to a different call_number might also be considered, but I'm not convinced that it's needed.

I like checking for the -1 call number in checkout.js and leaving the dummy data in the copy. Might be handy in case one were tracking down in the future whether the right pre-cat made it to the right record?
