The method EngineTraits.get_region(..) returns engine's region string
that **best fits** to SearXNG's locale. This means it returns a
region (country) if only a language is set in the locale. By example the method
returns for a locale tag `es` a region `ES`.
Google's search parameter `cr` restricts search results to documents originating
in a particular country / in case of a locale tag (language) as described above,
this argument should be unset in the query send to Google.

Disable btdigg because on most SearXNG instances, SearXNG is blocked by btdigg
due to cloudflare too many requests.
This impementation did not parse the HTML page because there is an API in
XML (RSS). The RSS feed provides fewer data like amount of seeders/leechers and
the files in the torrent file. It's a tradeoff for a "stable" engine as the XML
from RSS content will change way less than the HTML page.

SearXNG does not allow a None value in the content field of a result item.
If the key (shortDescription, uploaderName) in the JSON response from piped
exists but is set to None, SearXNG ignores this result item::
DEBUG searx : result: invalid content: { .., 'content': None, ..}

- re-enables z-library as the new domain zlibrary-global.se is now available
from the open web. The announcement of the domain:
https://www.reddit.com/r/zlibrary/comments/13whe08/mod_note_zlibraryglobalse_domain_is_officially/
It is an official domain, it requires to log in to the "personal" subdomain
only to download files, but the search works.
- changes the result template of zlibrary to paper.html, filling the appropriate fields
- implements language filtering for zlibrary
- implement zlibrary custom filters (engine traits)
- refactor and document the zlibrary engine
We have built up detailed documentation of the *settings* and the *engines* over
the past few years. However, this documentation was still spread over various
chapters and was difficult to navigate in its entirety.
This patch rearranges the Settings & Engines documentation for better
readability.
To review new ordered docs::

The renderuing of the WEB page is very strange; except the firts position all
other positions of Anna's result page are enclosed in SGML comments. These
cooments are *uncommented* by some JS code, see query of the class
'.js-scroll-hidden' in Anna's HTML template [1].

It seems that Google is rolling out a modified WEB API [1][2].
In the past there was only the UI language in the `hl` argument but nowadays it
seems a combination of the UI language and the "search region" is mixed in this
argument and the `gl` argument has been removed. I'm very surprised that google
is starting to mix the parameters of the UI with the parameters of the search
index.
This patch modifies the get_google_info(..) function. Beside Google-WEB this
function is also used by other Google services, here are some examples to test
region & language of ..
- Google-WEB: `!go dragon boat :en-CA`
- Google-News: `!gon dragon boat :en-CA`
- Google-Videos: `!gov bmw :en-CA`
- Goolge-Images `!goi bmw :en-CA`

This patch fixes some quirks and issues related to the engines and the network.
Each engine has its own network and this network was broken for the following
engines[1]:
- archlinux
- bing
- dailymotion
- duckduckgo
- google
- peertube
- startpage
- wikipedia
Since the files have been touched anyway, the type annotaions of the engine
modules has also been completed so that error messages from the type checker are
no longer reported.

Follow up of #2269
The script to update the descriptions of the engines does no longer work since
PR #2269 has been merged.
searx/engines/wikipedia.py
==========================
1. There was a misusage of zh-classical.wikipedia.org:
- `zh-classical` is dedicate to classical Chinese [1] which is not
traditional Chinese [2].
- zh.wikipedia.org has LanguageConverter enabled [3] and is going to
dynamically show simplified or traditional Chinese according to the
HTTP Accept-Language header.
2. The update_engine_descriptions.py needs a list of all wikipedias. The
implementation from #2269 included only a reduced list:
- https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_article_depth
- https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wikipedias
searxng_extra/update/update_engine_descriptions.py
==================================================
Before PR #2269 there was a match_language() function that did an approximation
using various methods. With PR #2269 there are only the types in the data model
of the languages, which can be recognized by babel. The approximation methods,
which are needed (only here) in the determination of the descriptions, must be
replaced by other methods.

This PR does no functional change it is just an attempt to make more clear in
the code, what a default category is and what a subcategory is. The previous
name 'others' leads to confusion with the **category 'other'**.
If a engine is not assigned to a category, the default is assigned::
DEFAULT_CATEGORY = 'other'
If an engine has only one category and this category is shown as tab in the user
interface, this engine has no further subgrouping::
NO_SUBGROUPING = 'without further subgrouping'
