New sanity test proposed: CATEGORIES

If you’re committing a port, the physical category must be included in CATEGORIES. That is, sysutils/bacula-server/Makefile must have sysutils in CATEGORIES. When people move ports, they often overlook that issue. In a recent commit, 25 ports failed this test.

Proposal: add a new sanity test which checks for this situation and alerts the committer.
