Description
In the documentation for[ detector arguments](https://github.com/microsoft/component-detection/blob/main/docs/detector-arguments.md) it states that the `--DetectorCategories` arguments possible values are: Npm, NuGet, Maven, RubyGems, Cargo, Pip, GoMod, CocoaPods, Linux.
```
--DetectorCategories A comma separated list with the categories of
components that are going to be scanned. The
detectors that are going to run are the ones that
belongs to the categories.The possible values are:
Npm, NuGet, Maven, RubyGems, Cargo, Pip, GoMod,
CocoaPods, Linux.
```
This is incorrect for at least `Pip`. `Pip` will not work. For Python ecosystems the --DetectorCategories needs to be `Python` and will use all the python detectors.
Can the documentation be corrected?
