Problem Statement

When pulling a contentlet via the API that has a category field, if the category does not have CMS Anonymous view permissions it is not included in the API response.

This is accompanied by a WARN message in the dotCMS logs

WARN  strategy.DefaultTransformStrategy - An error occurred when adding Categories to Contentlet with ID '68434398-fa40-410a-89ac-3fad66f28630': User 'anonymous' doesn't have READ permission on Category 'dd98af23-c4ac-472b-aed4-60d67a797469'

Steps to Reproduce

1. From a demo starter, remove CMS Anonymous permissions from the 'Product Line' category
2. Pick a product from the contentlet search
3. Go to this History tab and click 'JSON' to get the API response
4. The Category field will not be included, and your logs will show the WARN message

Acceptance Criteria

1. Categories should be pulled based the permissions of the user that is making the API call and not CMS Anonymous
