Describe the bug

This shouldn't be used directly and instead, it should use the GB apiFecth interface. This will provide support for retries and cache of the data.

The only thing needed is to add the /wp/v2/categories to the white list here:

gutenberg-mobile/src/api-fetch-setup.js

Line 44 in e288c45

[ /wp\/v2\/media\/?\d*?.*/i ].some( ( pattern ) => pattern.test( path ) );

Reference

Expected behavior
Categories should still be fetched
