Description:
Custom date formatting for a field, located in footer is lost when ODT document
is saved.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a document, add SetVariable field of date type
2. Place a ShowVariable field for this var inside Footer and make it custom
format, e.g. YYYY-YYYY
3. Save the document, then close it
4. Open the document - most likely everything will be fine, then modify the
document, add some text and save it again and close it.
5. Open the document again

Actual Results:
See that the ShowVariable field in footer is now formatted as a number

Expected Results:
Writer should keep the field formatting set before.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Check this file - open it and see formatting is fine, save it, reopen and see
formatting is lost
