Categories was a whole CRUD system (its own file, its own card, its
own API routes) for something that only ever had one functional
effect: tagging a device "mobile" to enable RTP NAT-keepalive tuning,
plus a per-category auto-answer default. Replaced with a single
"Mobile/cellular device" checkbox directly on the add-extension form
and each extension row, writing the same underlying category string
Easy Asterisk's device format already expects ("mobile" or
"standard") without a separate category registry to manage. Removes
ea_list_categories/ea_create_category/ea_delete_category/
ea_rename_category, their /api/ea-categories* routes, the Categories
card, and the now-unused categories.conf sudoers grant.
Rooms stays as-is — unlike Categories, it's the only actually-dialable
ring/page group in this dashboard (a real Easy Asterisk extension that
rings or pages members live), which the dashboard-only Groups feature
cannot replace.
