Issue/Introduction

Getting White background UI Theme after deleting UI Theme that was associated with a Partition.
ui_theme_code  field in cmn_partitions table is not updated properly when you delete a UI Theme that is associated with a Partition.

Steps to Reproduce:

1.    Login with Admin and create custom UI Theme 'my_ui_theme'. UI theme code will not make any difference. You can copy/paste the css code of any of the otb ui theme for example.
2.    Create partition Model with partition 'my_partition'
3.    In the Partition Properties set UI Theme=my_ui_theme. Click on Save and Return.
4.    Assign user ‘myuser’  to the partition.
5.    Assign partition to the Project object.
6.    Login with user 'myuser' and set Account Settings - Default Partitions:

UI Theme Partition='my_partition'
Project Object default Partition= 'my_partition'

7.    Login with user 'myuser'.
Overview page uses correct UI Theme
Navigate to Project Page. Project Page uses correct UI Theme.
8.    Login with Admin and delete UI Theme 'my_ui_theme'
9.    Open partition Model and open partition 'my_partition'.
Notice UI Theme shows [--Select--]
At first glance you would think that the UI Theme was unlink because it was deleted
10.    Run Query: 
select code, model_code, ui_theme_code, is_active from cmn_partitions where code='my_partition'


Expected Result: 
ui_theme_code should be null. 

Actual Result: 
The ui_theme_code field still has 'my_ui_theme'.

11.    Login again with user 'myuser'.
Overview page looks OK

12.    Navigate to Project Page

Expected Result: 
Default UI Theme should be used

Actual Result: 
You get the White background
