Sample DOCX

The attached DOCX, created in Word, contains a single drop-down form field, and
has been restricted so only forms can be filled.

Save it in Writer and open in Word again, then switch to edit mode.

=> Drop-down isn't editable (the selected value can't be changed).
After removing and readding restriction, the drop-down is editable again.

Observed using LO 6.2.0.3 / Windows 7.
No issue when saved in 6.1.0.3.
=> regression

Bibisected to the following commit using repo bibisect-win32-6.2. I'm a bit
confused after reading the commit description, this document does not seem to
contain sections (or editable regions). When editing is restricted to filling
in forms, nothing, apart the different form fields can be edited. Adding Cc: to
Justin Luth, please take a look.

sw mso export: PROTECT_FORM shouldn't force section to protected
