Add support for configuring which categories are downloaded automatically #832

Closed chancez closed 7 months ago

chancez commented 7 months ago

Implementation is similar to the global update categories. This allows you to configure which manga you want to auto download based on their categories. The default behavior remains the same. If no categories are configured, then automatic downloads will behave the same as prior to this change, which is to say, all manga in your library are considered for automatic downloads.

The idea is that you might have server.excludeEntryWithUnreadChapters=false but don't necessarily want all your manga to get downloaded when new chapters come out.

For example; if you've started a manga, but are taking a break, or if you finished a manga that has some "extra" chapters that come out later, or something. For a setup like this, I have a "currently reading" category, and a "backlog" and "completed" category". I'd set "currently reading" to be included, and the others to be excluded, ensuring only manga in my "currently reading" get auto downloaded as new chapters are released.
