[support] New CCK field not found in mysql

[Paul Kim]

CCK only creates content_field_xxxx when that field is shared between two or
more content types. Otherwise, it just adds a column to content_type_yyyy.

I found where the data went by exporting the sites database.  Rather
than create a new table named content_field_street_name, as I would have
expected, it created content_type_[content_type_name].  This table has
fields: vid, nid and field_street_name_value.  I'm about out of time
today but I wonder what would've happened had I added two new fields to
this CCK type.
