Category selection filter doesn't work

[Hazy-uhyR]

Description

The filter is accepted by the game, but then nothing happens. Tested with COMMANDER and UNDERWATER categories. I'm not sure why it doesn't work, as the code is too advanced for me to understand.

Beyond-All-Reason/units/armcom.lua

Line 18 in 4a3bec6

category = "ALL WEAPON NOTSUB COMMANDER NOTSHIP NOTAIR NOTHOVER SURFACE CANBEUW EMPABLE",

Expected Behaviour

It should work.

Actual Behaviour

The action is accepted by the game, but then nothing happens.

Reproduction steps

Put the below in uikeys.txt and start up a game. Set keybind preset to Custom. Note that comms do not get selected on execution.
bind ctrl+g select AllMap+_Category_COMMANDER+_ClearSelection_SelectOne+

looks like this is going to be handled on the Spring side of things. Makes sense, as this is an engine issue. beyond-all-reason/spring#816
