Category or TestCategory

Description

[Enter feedback here]
I'm using nUnit, and for historic (and probably mistaken) reasons we have many jobs that run dotnet test --filter Category=MyCategory, and not dotnet test --filter TestCategory=MyCategory (notice the use of Category vs TestCategory). Apparently it works well, but because it's not documented (nor here nor I found anywhere else any reference about it), I can't tell whether it's safe to continue using it or not. So please either document that Category and TestCategory can be used interchangeably when filtering nUnit, or describe the differences.

Thank you!
