Regression: multilingual taxonomy term migrations are failing if user tries to migrate from Drupal 7.81+ and Entity Translation 7.x-1.1

Problem/Motivation

The most recent stable release of Entity Translation uses a different i18n_mode value for translated taxonomy terms. See https://git.drupalcode.org/project/entity_translation/-/blob/7.x-1.1/ent...

This means that any user trying to migrate from an up-to-date Drupal 7 instance will lose translation data.

Steps to reproduce

  1. With the most recent Drupal 7 release + Entity Translation, create a vocabulary which allows its terms to be translated by entity translation.
  2. Try to migrate the source Drupal 7 instance (e.g. with Migrate Drupal UI)
  3. You'll see a logged migrate exception message thrown from the migration plugin in the IT: "No static mapping found for ''32768'' and no default value provided for destination 'language_alterable'."
  4. You'll see that none of the term translations are migrated (d7_taxonomy_term_translation migrate map table contains skipped rows only)."

Proposed resolution

Update mappings to deal with the most recent i18n_mode.
