Subject: [ruby-core:100080] [Ruby master Feature#17143] Improve support for	warning categories

Issue #17143 has been updated by ko1 (Koichi Sasada).


Let me clear the proposal. Your PR seems to allow any categories (and any class of object). Is it intentional?

----------------------------------------
Feature #17143: Improve support for warning categories
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17143#change-87637

* Author: jeremyevans0 (Jeremy Evans)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
----------------------------------------
Support was recently added for Warning.warn to accept a `category` keyword.  However, the initial implementation was limited to having `rb_warn_deprecated` and `rb_warn_deprecated_to_remove` use the `:deprecated` value for the `category` keyword.

It doesn't make sense to me to have a `category` keyword if it is only used for deprecation, so I propose we extend the support so that `Kernel#warn` accepts a category keyword (for Ruby-level warnings) and `rb_category_warn` and `rb_category_warning` functions be added to the C-API (for C-level warnings).  I also propose that we change existing `rb_warn` and `rb_warning` calls to `rb_category_warn` and `rb_category_warning`, so that all warnings issued by core Ruby are issued with an appropriate category.

I have implemented support for this in a pull request: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/3508
