days.

Startpage has introduced new anti-scraping measures that make SearXNG instances
run into captchas:
1. some arguments has been removed and a new `sc` has been added.
2. search path changed from `do/search` to `sp/search`
3. POST request is no longer needed

api.openverse.engineering is a little picky and wants to have a trailing slash
in the path:
/v1/images? -->/ v1/images/?
otherwise it redirects, here is the debug log:
DEBUG searx.network.openverse : HTTP Request: GET https://api.openverse.engineering/v1/images?&page=1&page_size=20&format=json&q=foo "HTTP/2 301 Moved Permanently" (text/html; charset=utf-8)

The implementation of the etools engine is poor. No date-range support, no
language support and it is broken by a CAPTCHA.
etools is a metasearch engine, the major search engines it supports (google,
bing, wikipedia, Yahoo) are already available in SeaarXNG.
While etools does support several engines we currently don't support directly,
support for them should be added directly to SearXNG if there is demand.
In practice: in SearXNG the worse etools results will be mixed with good results
from other engines we have (as long as there is no captcha).
At best case, what we win with etools is in e.g. results from de.ask.com in a
query from a german request .. in all other cases worse results are bubble up in
SearXNG's result list.

The previous implementation used two hash sets and a list.
... that's not necessary ... a single hash map suffices.
And it's also less error prone ... because the previous data structure
allowed a setting to be enabled and disabled at the same time.
Previously the default_value was abused for the cookie name.
Having SwitchableSetting subclass Setting doesn't even make sense
in the first place since none of the Setting methods apply.
The ? search operator has been broken for some time and
currently only raises the question why it's still there.
## Context ##
The query "Paris !images" searches for "Paris" in the "images" category.
Once upon a time Searx supported "Paris ?images" to search for "Paris"
in the currently enabled categories and the "images" category.
The feature makes sense ... the ? syntax does not.
We will hopefully introduce a +!images syntax in the future.
Fixes#702.
* allow not to record metrics (response time, etc...)
* this commit doesn't change the UI. If the metrics are disabled
/stats and /stats/errors will return empty response.
in /preferences, the columns response time and reliability will be empty.
The tab icon names are currently hard coded in the templates.
This commit lets us introduce an icon property in the future, e.g:
categories_as_tabs:
general:
icon: search-outline
These dictionaries are no longer part of the general category,
so they're no longer queried by default -> we can enable them
by default without degrading general query performance.
The general category is the category that is searched by default.
From a privacy standpoint it doesn't make sense to send all general
queries to specialized search engines that cannot deal with those
queries anyway.
Previously we didn't have a good place to put search engines that don't
fit into any of the tab categories. This commit automatically puts
search engines that don't belong to any tab category in an "other"
category, that is only displayed in the user preferences (and not above
search results).
