Strip dashes from ISBNs

Currently our schema:issn
values use the full form with dashes as it was written into MARC records, e.g. 951-0-15092-4
. But this makes linking difficult since many other data sources use the form without dashes, and it's non-trivial to add the dashes.
The dashes should be stripped so that the value is only the number, e.g. 9510150924
. Also the examples for schema:issn
use this form.

Note that the same doesn't apply to ISSNs, because they are conventionally written with the dash (XXXX-YYYY
) always at the same position.
