 As the title says, when I use categories route "/wp/v2/categories/" it
 returns an array of "category" objects, as stated in the documentation.
 But it always returns an empty array for meta object, whether it has meta
 fields or not. However, when I use get_term_meta() I get an associative
 array that contains all meta fields as key => value pairs -as expected-.
