We have been using a static type checker (pyright) for a long time, but its
check was not yet a prerequisite for passing the quality gate. It was checked
in the CI, but the error messages were only logged.
As is always the case in life, with checks that you have to do but which have no
consequences; you neglect them :-)
We didn't activate the checks back then because we (even today) have too much
monkey patching in our code (not only in the engines, httpx and others objects
are also affected).
We want to replace monkey patching with clear interfaces for a long time, the
basis for this is increased typing and we can only achieve this if we make type
checking an integral part of the quality gate.
This PR activates the type check; in order to pass the check, a few typings
were corrected in the code, but most type inconsistencies were deactivated via
inline comments.
This was particularly necessary in places where the code uses properties that
stick to the objects (monkey patching). The sticking of properties only happens
in a few places, but the access to these properties extends over the entire
code, which is why there are many `# type: ignore` markers in the code ... which
we will hopefully be able to remove again successively in the future.

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::
make docs.clean docs.live

no_result_for_http_status contains a list of HTTP status.
These HTTP status are seen an empty result list.
In other cases an exception is thrown as usual.
Previously raise_for_httperror were ignoring all HTTP error,
which make defective engines invisible in the stats.
Instead of raising an exception and therefore hiding all results of the engine.
It make sense to remove that requirement in order to allow the implementation of
search engines that do not always have a description. In fact some search
engines that in 99% of the case have a description like Brave Search or Mojeek
crash completely if they for some reason included a result with no description.
To test this patch try Mojeek:

before commit 58d72f2, category was not set in xpath.py,
so searx/engines/__init__py was setting the category to ['general']
the commit 58d72f2 set the category to [] which is not replaced by searx/engines/__init__.py
consequence: the mojeek engine is hidden in the preferences.
this commit revert the xpath.py change.
close#2368
Xpath engine and results template changed to account for the fact that
archive.org doesn't cache .onions, though some onion engines migth have
their own cache.
Disabled by default. Can be enabled by setting the SOCKS proxies to
wherever Tor is listening and setting using_tor_proxy as True.
Requires Tor and updating packages.
To avoid manually adding the timeout on each engine, you can set
extra_proxy_timeout to account for Tor's (or whatever proxy used) extra
time.
