Walker_Category::start_el() with custom taxonomy

Description

Although wp_list_categories() supports custom taxonomies, Walker_Category::start_el() calls get_category() if the argument 'current_category' is passed, ignoring the taxonomy argument.

if ( isset($current_category) && $current_category )
	$_current_category = get_category( $current_category );

Minor side effects currently include unnecessary database queries and failure to add 'current-cat-parent' class(es).

Simple fix would be to check for the taxonomy argument, and use get_term() instead;

if ( isset($current_category) && $current_category )
	$_current_category = get_term( $current_category, isset($taxonomy) ? $taxonomy : 'category' );
