 Our plugin translates categories and posts. Let's assume we have two
 languages:
 - original: English
 - second: French

 We defined category "test" and its translation "test-fr". The category is
 assigned to the post in such way that English post has English category
 and vice versa.

 Currently, when we call has_category("test") in single.php file, it
 returns  true only for the English post ( because French one does not have
 "test" category but "test-fr" ). We expect that result will be true in
 both cases.

 ----

 For this reason, we need some filter inside ''is_object_in_term''
 function, similar to "get_object_terms" inside "wp_get_object_terms"
 function. It will give as opportunity to adjust "has_category" behaviour
 to out requirements.
