Comment (by ryan):

 Misc thoughts.  Convert category to tag by setting the type bitfield to
 TAXONOMY_TAG unless the category is also a link category (link_count > 0).
 In that case, bitwise or TAXONOMY_TAG into the bitfield.  Change rel_type
 in post2cat from category to tag for all posts with that category id. Copy
 count to tag_count and then zero out count.  Link to the importer from
 Manage->Categories for better discoverability.
