UploadWizard should recognise when a category is a redirect to another category
Open, Needs TriagePublicFeature

Description

Feature summary (what you would like to be able to do and where):

UploadWizard should recognise when a category is a redirect, maybe recognising when {{Category redirect}} is used, and automatically correct the category to the right one.

Use case(s) (list the steps that you performed to discover that problem, and describe the actual underlying problem which you want to solve. Do not describe only a solution):
RussBot does this moving currently and the time needed to complete the backlog is of 5 to 6 hours, while on en.wp the same task needs only 5-10 minutes.

Benefits (why should this be implemented?):
This will reduce the backlog of file needing to be moved to the correct category by several hundreds per week.
