(Whiteboard: [form autofill]) 

After having a Sync + FormAutofill Work Week, "Update" operations should be implemented for Sync Engine to finish data synchronization. "Update" function is used for replacing one record with another one. We should consider the following cases:
* Higher schema version replace lower schema version
  - just replace it without any field operations. Use higher schema version for the new record.
* Lower schema version replace higher schema version
  - Copy the lower schema version field content to the higher one. Use lower schema version.

NOTE - Two type fields for the schema difference:
  Brand new field, e.g. #Social-ID
  Related to the existing fields, e.g. tel v.s. tel-national

NOTE - Ignore the higher schema version fields in the lower version schema object.
