What I have done
Renamed the term "secondary categories" to "additional categories" everywhere in the code.
Updated the frontend UI. Now, all categories are shown together under one simple label: "Categories:...".
Changed settings so "additional categories" options now depend on the "main category" settings to avoid conflicts.
Updated the Articles module to show both the main category and additional categories, but only if the user has permission to see them. It also respects the "Category Link" option.
Updated Cypress tests to use the new names and check the menu item settings.
