Ensure transient cover_url field value gets persisted across form renders

Given this field doesn't map to an `Edition` model field it lost its values when re-rendering the form.
It worked only when the form was valid and rendered as part of the confirmation screen, which is due to
the context data value being set in `add_authors` which was only getting called after the form validation.

I've opted to pull it out into a separate new function that gets called before form validation.
