Owner

Parent: #355

Problem

Category reads are partly centralized, but category color writes and category listing still live directly in server actions/routes. That leaves category persistence split across route adapters and core helpers.

Solution

Move category data operations behind one core/server owner:

add explicit helpers for setting/removing category colors
centralize category listing with counts/colors
keep route and action response shapes unchanged
add focused tests for category persistence behavior

Acceptance criteria

Route/action files no longer hand-roll category DB updates or category-list SQL.
Existing UI behavior and API response shape are preserved.
Tests cover category color set/remove and category listing.
