Not built in, but PostgreSQL makes it pretty easy to do so.  With a
little effort to define your own aggregate function, your query can
look like this:

SELECT
    thing_id,
    category,
    int4range_list(period_id)
  FROM thing
  GROUP BY thing_id, category
  ORDER BY 1, 2;

I've attached a couple files -- one which creates the desired
aggregate function, and the other loads a table with two of your
sample data sets and runs the above.  This is just intended as a
quick example of the capabilities available to you.
