What is cenAlarmCategoryDefinition?

This is a formatted '<integer>,<description>' string pairing the numeric category code from cenAlarmCategory with a human-readable one-line label for that category. Like its status-definition counterpart, this lets integrations display a meaningful category name without maintaining a separate static lookup table on the management side. A value like '7,Environmental - Temperature' traveling with the alarm lets a dashboard label the event correctly even if the receiving system has never seen that Cisco device model before.
