This is for PFS so I need a RAW answer. Is there anyplace that clearly defines a Mounted Combat feat?

There has never been an answer to your question posted to the FAQ or any errata document.
Bonus Feats: A sohei may select mounted combat feats as bonus feats.
The general consensus is that "mounted combat feats" (notice the lack of capitalization) means "any feat with Mounted Combat as a prerequisite", as well as Mounted Combat itself.
Yes, this means you could theoretically take such high level feats as Mounted Skirmisher and Trick Riding at 1st level. Many a discussion has been had on this matter over the years.
You shouldn't encounter table variation on this, though, as there isn't really an interpretation beyond what I've outlined above. The ability states "feats", plural, so it must refer to feats beyond Mounted Combat itself. Without any other guidance, PFS GMs shouldn't have the ability to pick and choose which feats your character does or doesn't qualify for.

Thank you, that was insightful.
