Selecting the +subcategories option does not work sometimes when "lazy
load categories" is enabled because the subcategories may not be
fetched. This ensures that subcategories are loaded by requesting them
before being used.
A lot of work has been put in the select kits used for selecting
categories: CategorySelector, CategoryChooser, CategoryDrop, however
they still do not work as expected when these selectors already have
values set, because the category were still looked up in the list of
categories stored on the client-side Categrories.list().
This PR fixes that by looking up the categories when the selector is
initialized. This required altering the /categories/find.json endpoint
to accept a list of IDs that need to be looked up. The API is called
using Category.asyncFindByIds on the client-side.
CategorySelector was also updated to receive a list of category IDs as
attribute, instead of the list of categories, because the list of
categories may have not been loaded.
During this development, I noticed that SiteCategorySerializer did not
serializer all fields (such as permission and notification_level)
which are not a property of category, but a property of the relationship
between users and categories. To make this more efficient, the
preload_user_fields! method was implemented that can be used to
preload these attributes for a user and a list of categories.
The category drop was rerendered after every category async change
because it updated the categories list. This is not necessary and
categories can be referenced indirectly by ID instead.
Adds a new upload field for a second dark mode category logo.
This alternative will be used when the browser is in dark mode (similar to the global site setting for a dark logo).
- Using h4 instead of h3 for sub-categories.
- Show category description if it does not have subcategories.
- Implemented equivalent for mobile-view.
- Include description_excerpt in basic serializer. This is needed for
displaying second-level categories in category list.

This reduces chances of errors where consumers of strings mutate inputs
and reduces memory usage of the app.
Test suite passes now, but there may be some stuff left, so we will run
a few sites on a branch prior to merging
* Adds warnings to the "Edit Category" dialog
* Doesn't hide the "Security" tab on the "Edit Category" dialog anymore. Instead, it shows an explanation why permissions can't be changed.
* Makes the category name translatable
* Hides the category name from the edit dialog (it can be customized by overriding the translation)
* Creates a translation override if the category has been renamed in the past
### navigate_to_first_post_after_read setting for categories
When enabled on categories logged on users will return to OP after
reading the entire category. (useful for documentation categories)
### num_auto_bump_daily
Set a number of topics that will automatically bump daily on a category.
- Every 15 minutes we will check if any category has this setting
- Categories with the setting are shuffled
- We exclude pinned, closed, category description and archived topics
- Maximum of 1 topic for the list of categories is bumped till limit reached per category
- We always try to bump oldest first
- Limit is elastic using a RateLimiter that ensures that we only bump N per day
Also some minor organisation on category settings
