Title: WritableCatalogManager::TouchEntry destroyed cvmfs-administrative data

The syncing process creates DirectoryEntry objects that can be used to update the catalogs with WritableCatalogManger::TouchEntry. Unfortunately these DirectoryEntries DO NOT contain any cvmfs-specific administrative data (i.e. nested catalog intrinsics). Therefore WritableCatalogManger::TouchEntry overwrote this data with standard values essentially destroying the nested catalog structure.

THIS IS JUST A HOTFIX! We are having a design flaw here, that will lead to serious headache if something changes!
