PCR - add percent to categories in gradebook

There is an option within the grade called "Enter Value Show Percent" this option shows both the entered total value and the percent scored in each category. This option is located in the first dropdown on the top right of the gradebook. There are other options in this dropdown, for example there is one that only shows the percent score.

I've attached a screenshot of where it is: https://www.screencast.com/t/xgYtuMc1b
