This patch adds the boilerplate code, needed to fetch properties from engines.
In the past we only fetched *languages* but some engines need *regions* to
parameterize the engine request.
To fit into our *fetch language* procedures the boilerplate is implemented in
the `searxng_extra/update/update_languages.py` and the *engine_properties* are
stored along in the `searx/data/engines_languages.json`.
This implementation is downward compatible to the `_fetch_fetch_languages()`
infrastructure we have. If there comes the day we have all
`_fetch_fetch_languages()` implementations moved to `_fetch_engine_properties()`
implementations, we can rename the files and scripts.
The new type `EngineProperties` is a dictionary with keys `languages` and
`regions`. The values are dictionaries to map from SearXNG's language & region
to option values the engine does use::
engine_properties = {
'type' : 'engine_properties', # <-- !!!
'regions': {
# 'ca-ES' : <engine's region name>
},
'languages': {
# 'ca' : <engine's language name>
},
}
Similar to the `supported_languages`, in the engine the properties are available
under the name `supported_properties`.
Initial we start with languages & regions, but in a wider sense the type is
named *engine properties*. Engines can store in whatever options they need and
may be in the future there is a need to fetch additional or complete different
properties.

Most engines that support languages (and regions) use the Accept-Language from
the WEB browser to build a response that fits to the language (and region).
- add new engine option: send_accept_language_header

With Sphinx-doc update 4.4.0 we get some warnings about links that can be
replaced by already defined 'sphinx.ext.extlinks':
admin/engines/sql-engines.rst:144: WARNING: hardcoded link 'https://pypi.org/project/mysql-connector-python' could be replaced by an extlink (try using ':pypi:`mysql-connector-python`' instead)
docs/admin/installation-switch2ng.rst:10: WARNING: hardcoded link 'https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/446#issuecomment-954730358' could be replaced by an extlink (try using ':pull:`446#issuecomment-954730358`' instead)

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
Add a redis connector, the default DB connector is a socket at::
unix:///usr/local/searxng-redis/run/redis.sock?db=0
To set up a redis instance simply use::
$ ./manage redis.build
$ sudo -H ./manage redis.install
A hint for developers:
To get access rights to this instance, your developer account needs to be added
to the *searxng-redis* group::
$ sudo -H ./manage redis.addgrp "${USER}"
# don't forget to logout & login to get member of group

Previously all categories were displayed as search engine tabs.
This commit changes that so that only the categories listed under
categories_as_tabs in settings.yml are displayed.
This lets us introduce more categories without cluttering up the UI.
Categories not displayed as tabs can still be searched with !bangs.
Previously the documentation grouped the engines by their first
category so e.g. YouTube and Invidious were only shown in the
in the videos section but not in the music section.
This commit fixes this by iterating over searx.engines.categories,
which also has the added benefit that the sections are now in the
same order as the tabs in the user interface.
