Filter feeds on categories to select contents related to QGIS

[Guts]

RSS 2.0 and Atom 1.0 standards support some categories at item level, which can be considered as tags:

• https://cyber.harvard.edu/rss/rss.html#ltcategorygtSubelementOfLtitemgt
• https://www.w3schools.com/xml/rss_tag_category_item.asp
• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS

Depending on the tool used to generate RSS for a website, it can be tricky to generate a custom feed for specific parts of the whole content. As Mkdocs RSS Plugin maintainer, it's still on the plans but not so easy to implement.

I suggest that the planet allow to filter on categories. It could be specified in the subscriber model:

  {
    "feed": "https://geotribu.fr/feed_rss_created.xml",
    "name": "Geotribu",
    "shortname": "geotribu_fr",
    "is_active": true,
    "filter_categories": [
      "QGIS",
      "QField",
      "QGIS Server",
      "PyQGIS",
      "Mergin",
    ],
    "languages": {
      "available": [
        "fr_FR"
      ],
      "main": "fr_FR"
    }
  },

Typically:
