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.

In the past, some files were tested with the standard profile, others with a
profile in which most of the messages were switched off ... some files were not
checked at all.
- ``PYLINT_SEARXNG_DISABLE_OPTION`` has been abolished
- the distinction ``# lint: pylint`` is no longer necessary
- the pylint tasks have been reduced from three to two
1. ./searx/engines -> lint engines with additional builtins
2. ./searx ./searxng_extra ./tests -> lint all other python files

* 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.
httpx.RequestError (subclass of httpx.HTTPError) has a property request.
This property raises a RuntimeError if the attributes _request is None.
To avoid a cascade of errors, this commit reads directly the _request attribute.
- init stat values by None
- drop round_or_none
- don't try to get percentage if base is 'None'

Some error won't stop the engine:
* additional HTTP redirects for example
* some invalid results
secondary=True allows to flag these errors as not important.
