Description
Categorize Fit Functions.
This categorization is e.g. meant to target users who use the Fit interface in MantidPlot. For example, a Muon user wants to easily select among all the Fit Functions those relevant for fitting Muon data.
This is likely to become increasingly relevant as more specialised custom Fit functions are added to Mantid. For example the Muon group at ISIS is threatening with adding 15 or more of these.
A suggestion for a user gui is: When a user wants to select a Fit function he/she is presented with a tree of nodes, where each node is a sub-category, for example, a Muon Fitting category, a general purpose category (where functions such as Gaussian and Lorentzian lives) etc. Note a given function may possibly be a member of multiple categories and a sub-category should be allowed to be split up into further sub-categories.

follow the same approach as for algorithms.

I should say the reason for putting this up to critical - is because the Muon is now starting to add muon fitting functions where the categorisation becomes important

Changed default categorization seperator for fit functions. re #1987
1) add categories() method (as from Algorithm) 2) categorization fit function "ExpDecay" and added unit test

The categories of General and Muon have been added to the functions ExpDecay and ExpDecayOsc and this addition has been unit tested successfully in each case.
