Comment (by priyanshuhaldar):
There is a workaround for this. You can add the sub-menu block and then
add text for the primary menu item and link it to the parent category
manually. Then, in the sub-menu item, add the category link block and link
the child category there.
Though I'm working on a feature to add a sidebar control for the category
link block to choose to display the child categories. Will be sharing an
update here.
