speedy deletion template after this is nonesense. The result of the current
implementation is having no redirect (without any parameter). The opposite
could be -softredirect to keep that template if a wiki has it (e.g. de-wiki
does not allow soft redirects on categories).

The logic for user that can move categories (`move-categorypages`) looks
something like:
1. If `-nodelete` is specified (`delete_oldcat=False`), keep a redirect.
2. Else if the user has the `suppressredirect` right, then use `noredirect`
when moving the category to not leave a redirect.
3. Else if the user has the `delete` right, delete the redirect left behind
after the move.
4. Else, tag the redirect with `{{delete}}`.
Do we want a `-leaveredirect` option? It would make the logic something like:
1. If `-nodelete` is specified (`delete_oldcat=False`), keep a redirect.
2. Else if `-leaveredirect` is specified, keep a redirect.
3. Else if the user has the `suppressredirect` right, then use `noredirect`
when moving the category to not leave a redirect.
4. Else if the user has the `delete` right, delete the redirect left behind
after the move.
5. Else, tag the redirect with `{{delete}}`.
Unless I'm missing something, it wouldn't be different than use the existing
`-nodelete` if you want to keep the redirect.
