gbrodman d32b52d3a2 Don't destroy existing registry lock passwords in contacts (#317)
* Don't destroy existing registry lock passwords in contacts

The existing code assumes that the "contacts" segment of the form
contains an exact representation of the registrar contacts. This breaks
when we have a contact with an existing registry lock password because
we don't want to keep passing around that password in plain text (we
never store it in plain text)

This PR changes the code so that instead of assuming the contact is
provided in its entirety, we load the contact from storage first
(matching by email address) if it exists. We then set the required
fields from the JSON object, and set the password optionally if it was
provided.

Alternatives:
- Create a separate RegistrarContactPassword object with a
RegistrarContact parent. This increases complexity significantly since
we'd be adding a parent-child relationship and adding more objects to
Datastore during the transition to SQL. It also doesn't completely solve
the problem of "When should we set the password?" because the password
field still must be part of the same form.
- Rearrange the UI so that the password is set as part of a completely
separate form with a separate submit action. This would be possible but
is sub-optimal for two reasons. First, we are trying to not re-engineer
the web console as much as possible since we're likely starting it from
scratch before too long anyway. Second, we want the
lock-password-setting to be part of the standard contact modification
workflow.
