[Evergreen-catalogers] Display problem in OPAC when 856 has a $n

[Elaine Hardy]

I haven't had a chance to check to see if other invalid subfields cause
display problems. However, it occurs to me now that |9 isn't a valid
subfield and it doesn't cause display issues.

We have had issues with the |3, |z and |y, and |u. It was fixed but I
haven't verified that it has remained fixed. I still would like to see the
856 display regardless of the indicators -
