Changing the category of bytestring from Data to something else

[Kleidukos]

I believe that Data doesn't accurately reflect the nature of the ByteString data type, and that the category field should be changed to something like Data Structures and FFI.
Should this ticket survive bikeshedding, I will open a PR to enact the changes.

@Bodigrim Do you have any preference at this time?

[Bodigrim]

shrug Hackage categories are pretty much useless, so honestly I don’t want to spend my life bikeshedding them. Whatever works for my fellow maintainers, @sjakobi and @clyring.

I don't object to adding the FFI category, but "Data" versus "Data Structures" doesn't seem worth bothering with.

[Kleidukos]

It's no bother at all for me, and would actually be more meaningful. :)

Also I have some interest in having proper categorisation of packages in Hackage, because then https://flora.pm/packages/@haskell/bytestring can show something appropriate instead of having to guess (wrongly) that every occurence of Data can be translated to Data Structures

[Bodigrim]

I don't see how bytestring qualifies for "Data Structures". Lists, trees, graphs are data structures, ByteString is just data.
