[turba] Using horde-db-migration script to update schema

No,  you should add the column manually. For apps like Turba,  where  
it's likely the admin will add additional columns,  we add existence  
checks for columns that we touch with the migration scripts. That way  
if we ever happen to add the same column upstream,  your version of  
the column won't interfere with the migration.
