Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The client IBK bike wants to have the option to be able to show a link to a product's main category (lowest level). I tried building this through a store link, but ended up not being able to display the proper category name dynamically.

Describe the solution you'd like As this link always lives in the product summary context, it makes sense to have a block exposed doing that here. This can be used in custom search shelfs or pages, on related products and more.

This request from the client is something that in my eyes makes total sense. This allows user cross navigation if they look for a certain item. Imagine they come from a search, don't find their product, but then see the category they are looking for. Instead of reaching for the menu, you have each product's category directly on the card. If properly implemented, this should lower drop outs of users looking for a specific type of product.

Describe alternatives you've considered I tried building this through a store link, but ended up not being able to display the proper category name dynamically.

Additional context Ive already implemented the new component, as this was a very small thing to do, and the pull request is ready. https://github.com/vtex-apps/product-summary/pull/344
