 terms-list-table.php#L35

 `$cap` is set but never used. The only occurrence of passing an argument
 to `check_permissions` is in admin-ajax.php which sends `'edit'`. Patch
 sets default cap to be manage_terms, but can be changed to edit_terms by
 passing 'edit', this means caps check is consistent with pre-list-tables.
