Manage user category notification preferences via API

We are working on some updated UI components to allow users to subscribe to notifications per category. In support of this upcoming enhancement, this release we've added a set of API endpoints to manage a user's notification preferences via the API. These include:

PUT /categories/{id}/follow will allow you to follow a specific category

PATCH /categories/{id}/preferences/{userID} will allow you to set a user's notification preferences for a specific category. Use the postNotifications parameter to configure preferences. Options are:

follow: to indicate no notifications for new content
discussions: to receive notifications for all new discussions posted in this category
all: to receive notifications for all new discussions and/or comments in this category

By default, you will receive pop-up (in-app) notifications. You can set the useEmailNotifications parameter to true if you would like to receive email notifications as well.
