Custom Fields: Updating a choice value doesn't update the value on the entity

Not planned

If we have a custom field that is either a choice or multi-choice field, we can set the options.  If we update one of the options, this new option value is not reflected where the old value was selected.

For example, if I have a Contact custom field that is a choice field with the options of "Option A", "Option B", and "Option C".

If I go to Contact 1 and set the field as "Option C" it saves as expected.

If I then edit the custom field and change "Option C" to "Option C1" I would expect that when I go to Contact 1 the custom field value is displayed as "Option C1" but instead it shows no value.
