What happened?

On book description, I can see that it is taking Publisher Year from the m4b's file metadata Recorded Date, which contain YYYY-MM-DD
Upon opening up in "Details" section, the Publisher Year section is empty.

In metadata.json the YYYY-MM-DDT00:00:00.000Z is recorded in the publishedYear section. (publishedDate is null)

This screenshot shows this in detail.

What did you expect to happen?

Publish Year in Detail pop up will have the same information which is displayed in the main page.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Import a m4b with metadata as below: (ffprobe output)

    date            : 2022-10-12T00:00:00.000Z

Open the book item in Audiobookshelf
Edit the Details
