  Compatibility:
    - Added 'ModuleCategoryDefaults.restricted_categories' table for module categories that should be disabled for all entities.
    - Added 'ModuleCategoryDefaults.process_entity_prototypes()' function that can be called manually to pick up any entity prototypes created after this mod's 'data-final-fixes'.
    - Added 'ModuleCategoryDefaults.process_recipe_prototypes()' function that does equivalent logic for recipe prototypes (recipes are not processed by default).
