Description

For some use cases the radius is not enough to do a proper resampling.

We are having this problem with categorical data which can not be averaged in a meaningful way but needs e.g. a decision tree to determine the correct aggregate.
This is probably slightly related to issue #12.

Research direction

Start by reading issue #12 and the existing resampling and custom-weight entry points in pyresample. The issue does not name files, tests, or a concrete interface; done would require a decided approach for applying custom aggregation to categorical data, followed by implementation and validation.
