Default selected check category could be customizable using filter

[ernilambar]

Currently default selected category is set to plugin_repo. It would be great if we could provide filter for that so that I can assign my custom category/categories as default.

$user_enabled_categories = get_user_setting( 'plugin_check_category_preferences', 'plugin_repo' );

Yes, why not?

I am not being able to register my own custom check categories in which I want to register my custom checks.

Currently categories are hardcoded.

public static function get_categories() {
return array(
self::CATEGORY_GENERAL,
self::CATEGORY_PLUGIN_REPO,
self::CATEGORY_SECURITY,
self::CATEGORY_PERFORMANCE,
self::CATEGORY_ACCESSIBILITY,
);
}

#508 and #509 should fix this issue.
