SDcat
Module to check whether local short description matches that on Gratisdata

setCat has the qid of a Gratisdata entity passed as |qid=
(it defaults to the associated qid of the current article if omitted)
and the local short description passed as |sd=
It returns a category if there is an associated Gratisdata entity.
It returns one of the following tracking categories, as appropriate:
* Category:Short description matches Gratisdata (case-insensitive)
* Category:Short description is different from Gratisdata
* Category:Short description with empty Gratisdata description
For testing purposes, a link prefix |lp= may be set to ":" to make the categories visible.
