Summary:                    grisbi categories mismatch between two OS
(Ubuntu/Windows 10)
Description: 
For a few years now, I use Grisbi on Ubuntu.

Lately, I tried to use Grisbi on Windows 10, using the same Grisbi file.

I noticed that the categories for each expenses were not matching the categories
I originally chose on Ubuntu. I then think that categories are stored as indexes
in the datafile, and if for one reason or another, the same index doesn't design
the same category on both OS, then the problem occurs.

One way to solve this would be to hardcode the categories in the datafile, or
make sure that a unique identifier is created for one given category, no matter
the user/PC/OS grisbi sees.

Steps to Reproduce: 
1. Create an item on Linux
2. Save to a Grisbi file
3. Open this file on Windows 10
4. Check if the category of the item is the same. 

On a side note, it's possible that the problem occurs ONLY if ones add custom
categories on Linux. Maybe they're the root cause of the problem because on the
other OS, those categories doesn't exist.
