Category selector — dropdown with custom categories #23

Description

@Shieldxx

What

Replace the free-text category input with a dropdown that lists existing categories. Users can type a new value to create a custom category, which is then saved and available in future dropdowns.

Why

Free-text input leads to inconsistent categories (e.g. 'AI', 'ai', 'Ai'). A dropdown with create-on-type makes categories reusable and consistent without restricting the user.

Acceptance criteria

  • Dropdown shows all categories already in use (derived from existing subscriptions)
  • User can type a new value to create a custom category
  • Selected/created category persists with the subscription
  • Preset quick-add entries use their built-in category by default
