Add additional sorting categories #73

Description

This mod is very useful in combination with this other mod Manage Containers. It allows you to add categories to some container, and when you get back from a loot trip, to instantly dump each item in the correct container. Big quality of life feature.

However some categories are lacking precision and as such some items cannot be instant sorted as we would like.

I propose adding the following categories:
Cooking - Ustentils (bowls, pans, saucepans...)
Cooking - Condiments (salt, maple syrups, vegetable oil...)
Cooking - Ingredients (flour, brown sugar, baking soda...)
Container - Bottles
Tool - Carpentry (hammer, ball-peen hammer...)
Tool - Mechanics (tire pump...)
Tool - Lights (flashlight, hand torch...)
Tool - Tailoring (scissors...)
Tool - Farming (gardening spray, shovel...)
Food - Fishing baits (worm, cricket, grasshopper...)
Food - Perishable meals (any meal prepared by the player)
Food - Perishable freeze-sensitive (ice cream (when it's not melted)...)
Food - Non-Perishable canned (any can that needs to be opened with a can opener)
Food - Non-Perishable spices (butter, marinara, ketchup, mayonnaise, tomato paste...)

Idea: merge Cooking - condiments (which right now are just cooking) and Food - Non-Perishable spices (which right now are Food - Non-Perishable) into one category, like Food - Non-Perishable spices & condiments

I'd also like to create categories that contain only one item, but this point I understand if you don't wish to add in your mod. I would like them for instant sorting. Problem with some of these is they overlap between categories (Needle can be used for tailoring and medical, screwdriver can be used for electronics and mechanics) :

  • Tool - Needle containing only the needle
  • Tool - Screwdriver containing only the screwdriver

Please let me know if this is in line with what you want for this mod. If you agree to this idea but cannot do the change yourself I could look into how to do this and create a PR tho I've never done this for PZ.
