Fixes a bug where metadata fields would not work properly and any change to such a metadata field would cause a bad request when trying to save changes. This bug can be observed on stable.opencast.org right now, where due to how it is configured, the multi value fields "presenters" and "contributors" do not have any options in their dropdowns. Unfortunately our code assumed that selected values must always exist in the dropdown options, causing issues. This should be fixed now
