Include 'Topic-Tag' Descriptions & Slugs with bbPress Importer

[netweb]

bbPress importer converter.php 'Tags Section' only imports 'topic'tag' taxonomy data fields:

• 'Topic Tag' Topic id. objectid
• 'Topic Tag' Taxonomy ID. taxonomy
• 'Topic Tag' Term name. name

Include extra taxonomy data when avaiable

• 'Topic Tag' slug in wp_terms
• 'Topic Tag' description in wp_term_taxonomy

Leaving this here for now... I think its something like this that is needed, though that something should work, this does not!
