Added support to use strings to upgradeObjectClass.

This change allows use python scripts to upgrade Object Class without write external methods for it. The from_class and to_class arguments can be used like followed:

 from_class="Products.ERP5Type.Document.Folder.Folder"
 to_class="Products.ERP5Type.Document.Category.Category"

or use previous behaviour:

 from_class = folder.__class__
 to_class = category.__class__
