Description

Describe the bug

There was a time, when the 2 fields for the phonetic names were separated. Then (this or last year) they were grouped to the detailed name. I added a lot of phonetic writings there for many many contacts, but now the 2 fields are separated again AND all (!) phonetic notations are completely lost. I hope this is a joke.

Steps to reproduce

All phonetic spellings are kept.

Actual behavior

They seem to be deleted.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the phonetic-name field loss around the change to version 5.4.0-beta.1, using the reported PHP, Apache, and MySQL setup; done means existing phonetic spellings remain available after the fields are separated again.
