Rethink categories and object types

ACL categories were supposed to disappear, being replace by objectTypes, and this was never done. We need to look into this and make some choices. There is duplicated information between these two things, + in simpleManagement objectType is used as category.

Idea: In plObjectType definition, we add a key 'category'. If this key is missing, the name of the objectType is used. If the definition of a category is missing and there is an objectType with the same name, we extract the category definition from the objectType.

Examples: Define a category and use it for this OT:

'plCategory' => array('system' => definition),
'plObjectType' => array('server' => array('category' => 'system', definition))

Defining a category and automatically use it:

'plCategory' => array('server' => definition),
'plObjectType' => array('server' => array(definition))

Do not define the category (auto-define from OT):

'plObjectType' => array('server' => array(definition))

What happens to tab which are in several objectTypes? Is the same category always used?

What should be happening is the following: editing the tab T for the object of type O should require rights on O/T, but I'm not sure it's how it works

Note: objectType already has an entry called aclCategory which is used for simpleManagement
