Most engines response best results if a region is selected, most often a
language is also in the properties of a engine and sometimes the language
argument is just the language of the UI. Most often choosing a language has a
minor effect on the result list.
To summarize:
Some engines have language codes (e.g. `ca`) in their properties, some have
region codes (e.g. `ca-ES`), some have regions and languages in their properties
and other engine do not have any language or region support.
In the past we generalized *language* over all kind of engines without taking
into mind that most engines gave best result when there is a region selected.
This *language-centric* view in SearXNG is misleading when we need
region-codes to parameterize engine request!
This patch replaces the *language-centric* view by a "language / region" view.
Conclusions:
With regions we can't say any longer that a engine supports *this or that*
language, by example: when the user selects 'zh' and a engine supports only
region codes like 'zh-TW' or 'zh-CN' we do not what results the user expects /
similar with 'en' or 'fr when the engine needs a region tag.
- Since it is unclear what the user expects by his language selection, we can't
assert a property that says: "supports_selected_language"
The feature is replaced in the UI by the wider sense of "language_support",
what stands for:
The engine has some kind of language support, either
by a region tag or by a language tag.
- A list of "supported_languages" does not make sense when there are regions
responsible for the result of an engine.
The "supported_languages" has been removed from the /config URL
- The `has_language` test in the `searx/search/checker/impl.py` has been removed
since it does not cover engines with region support.
If there is a need for such a test we can implement new tests after all
engines with language (region) support has been moved to the *supported
properites* scheme (see searxng_extra/update/update_languages.py)

Previously the preferences & stats templates contained the markup:
<a href="{{ url_for('index') }}"><h1><span>SearXNG</span></h1></a>
There are many things wrong with this:
1. the markup was duplicated
2. the CSS needed to be changed whenever a new page wanted to use this
header (since the CSS used page-specific selectors)
3. h1 should be reserved for the actual page title
(e.g. Preferences or Engine stats)
4. the image was set via CSS which also set:
span { visibility: hidden; }
which however removes the alternative text from the accessibility
tree (meaning screen readers will ignore it).
This commit fixes all these problems.
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).
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.
Strings like::
'Query in the page\'s title'
are hard to read / remove escape sequence by using double quotation marks for
strings ::
"Query in the page's title"
BTW: remove a leading dot in the simple theme [1].

* drop the webfont built by grunt for icons
* built icons.html template for inlining icons with jinja2 into html
* update icon to use mostly the outline version
* add icons to categories and do not display them on mobile to save space
* remove all legacy ion icon font files from simple theme
* icons.html is added in this commit since make statc.build.restore requires git to know the file already
* cleanup error-dialog
* disable by default
* settings.yml: ui.query_in_title
* in /preferences: privacy tab
when enabled, the result page's title contains the user query.
previously:
* oscar theme: the query was always included
* simple theme: the query was included with the GET method
When there is at least one errors or one failed checker test:
* the warning icon is displayed in the reliability column
* the link "View error logs and submit a bug report" is displayed on engine name tooltip.
Before:
* the warning icon was displayed only when one or more checker test(s) failed.
* the link "View error logs and submit a bug report" was not shown when a checker test failed but there were no error.
In the preference page, in the 'about' toolbox of an engine, add a link to the
stats page of the engine, if the engine had one or more errors.
Condition is::
reliabilities[<engine.name>].errors

* display the median time instead of the average.
* add a "Reliability" column (sum up the metrics and the checker results).
* the "selected language", "SafeSearch", "Time range" values are displayed as "broken" when the checker tests fail.
Instead of a hard-coded `oadoi.org` default, use the default value from
`settings.yml`.
Fix an issue in the themes: The replacement 'current_doi_resolver' contains the
doi_resolver_url, not the name of the DOI resolver. Compare return value of::
searx.plugins.oa_doi_rewrite.get_doi_resolver(...)
Fix a typo in `get_doi_resolver(..)`: suggested by @kvch:
*L32 should set doi_resolver not doi_resolvers*
