17938	Prevent fatal errors caused by admin-ajax.php's use of wp_insert_term()	mdawaffe	westi	"{{{wp_insert_term()}}} can return a {{{WP_Error}}}, but admin-ajax.php does not catch these errors.  In two places (when adding post and link categories during post/link creation), the result of {{{wp_insert_term()}}} is blindly assumed to be an array, which will cause a fatal error.

Attached checks for errors and skips that category.  The patch does not implement any error messaging to the user.
