Set Product Category Status
Activate or deactivate a category for the caller's market by writing the caller's per-market is_active override (adopting/creating the config if the market has none yet for a visible global). Tenant-scoped: only the caller's own or in-sector categories, never another market's. Never mints a duplicate canonical.

}Promote Product Category POST
Promote a private tenant category into a curated global category, discoverable and adoptable by other markets. Admin or merchant only. Optionally attach it to one or more sectors via sector_ids.
Similar Product Categories GET
Advisory lookup that returns up to 10 existing categories whose canonical name or the caller market's override name equals or contains the given name_en/name_ar, so the client can warn about a near-duplicate before creating one. At least one of name_en/name_ar is required. Tenant-scoped: never returns another market's private categories or overrides. Exact matches are ordered first, then contains, then by name.
