As a calendar user I can continue to use the event types from my old calendar in the new calendar as categories

Migrate the old Calendar event types to Categories. Add a vocabulary called "Calendar Event Types" and add the old Calendar event types as categories under it.

PASSED Manual Testing using the following steps:

1. Startup ee-6.1.20 bundle
2. Add a test page
3. Add the old calendar portlet
4. Add one event per event type (Anniversary, Birthday, Class, etc)
5. Shutdown ee-6.1.20 bundle
6. Startup 6.2 bundle on same database with the following in the portal-ext:

   passwords.encryption.algorithm.legacy=SHA

7. Deploy the calendar plugin
8. Add the new calendar portlet to the page
9. Assert all events created in the old calendar are migrated over successfully in the new bundle
10. Create an event
11. In the New Event i-frame, assert that all the old Calendar Event Types display (Anniversary, Birthday, Class, etc) as Categories
12. Navigate to Admin > Sites > Content > Categories
13. Assert old Calendar Event Types also display there

Fixed on:
Tomcat 7.0 + MySQL 5. Portal master GIT ID: b1aabfb4b67e4dc9d6347c2c2e75f84e08245fd4.
Plugins master GIT ID: 2bfa9cbb6ad50fff4ed43a50544cf52e73ddd9e0.

Event types from the old calendar portlet are now migrated over successfully into the new calendar portlet, and no errors are thrown in the console.
