Improvement: Using modal_category field in various core locations

[infograf768]

This PR lets use the existing modal_category field when possible in core, which is quite handy when one has many categories to deal with:

Menu items:
List Contacts in a Category
Content Category blog
Content Category list
List Newsfeeds in a category

Also:
User Notes
mod_articles categories

Example:

It also adds in multilingual associations the forcedlanguage in the title of the Select or Change Category modal.
Example, from the already existing:

we get when using the Select button:

This can go in 3.6.3 as it is not a new feature (contrary to #11694 which depends on the new modal_menu fields already merged in 3.7.0).

Don't we will have issues in RTL languages here?

[andrepereiradasilva]

besides the comment above all seems to work fine

[infograf768]

RTL looks fine here:

Can you mark the test OK?

Why milestone set to 3.7.0? It is NOT a new feature.
This is only an improvement. No additional code.
Please tag to 3.6.3 as done for #11718
and for sure #11749

[rdeutz]

I agree with the 3.7.0 milestone setting, this here is changing the UI/UX the other PRs are only changing text.

[infograf768]

In this case, I am ready to modify this PR and only change the modal title without touching at the xmls for now.

[rdeutz]

@infograf768 sounds good

[infograf768]

Took off the changes in the modal and will make a new PR with these only in order to get the modal title change in 3.6.3.
This can remain as is now for 3.7.0

[infograf768]

Please confirm PR #11751

Merged with ef98d6b - thanks JM!
