The replace via z39.50 function pre-populates the z39.50 search form with
values from the existing bib. Koha just pastes in the contents of
biblioitems.isbn, which means it very often pre-populates that field with a
value that will never find anything.

If the existing record has more than 1 ISBN, the prepopulated form will list
them all, pipe-separated. This search will always return no results, even when
either ISBN returns results successfully on its own.

If the existing record contains a parenthetical note about binding, that search
will generally fail as well.

We should only put the first ISBN from the record into the search form and we
should strip out any binding note or other fluff.
