When importing/overlaying patrons, if you have any blank columns in the csv,
any existing data in a patron record is cleared.  

There should be an option as to whether or not you intend to clear the data
using blank columns or not.

To recreate:
1. Create patron with several items of data, such as address, city, phone.
2. Create a csv with username, address, and a blank column for phone
3. Import patron file, using the overwrite function
4. See that the phone info is now blank in the patron record.
