* A possible use case of this method would be to associate vendorids to catalogs
* This can be achieved by
* CatalogProperty property = catalogContext.CreateProperty("VendorId", CatalogDataType.String, 128);
* catalogContext.AddPropertyToEntity(ExtensibleEntityType.ProductCatalog, "VendorId");
* ProductCatalog productCatalog = catalogContext.GetCatalog("CatalogName");
* productCatalog["VendorId"] = "Catalog Vendor Id";
* productCatalog.Save(); // The "Catalog Vendor Id" is now associated with the product catalog
