Previously engines were defined in modules, which where then
stapled with logger, supported_languages & language_aliases
via monkey patching in searx/engines/__init__.py.
Monkey patching is obviously a bad practice since it confuses
humans as well as static type checkers. But there were more problems:
* there were no type hints for the method input and output types
* the request method did not even make a clear distinction between input
and output (abusing a single "params" dictionary for both)
This commit introduces a new class-based architecture for engines,
in a backwards-compatiable manner: allowing old-style module engines
to be used along witn new-style class-based engines.
Check 'using_tor_proxy' for each engine individually instead of checking globally
[fix] searx.network: update _rdns test to the last httpx version

The macro "checkbox" in macros.html uses the macro "icon_small"
from icons.html
The commit imports icon_small in macros.html to fix the issue.
It works because the macros in macros.html are imported with the Jinja2 context.
See https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/3.0.x/templates/#import-visibilityclose#819
Engine description can be configured, this is needed e.g. by custom search
engines. Here is an example of a command engine with a description in the about
section::
- name: locate
engine: command
command: ['locate', '{{QUERY}}']
disabled: true
categories: files
about:
description: local files
website: 'https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/locate.1.html'
delimiter:
chars: ' '
keys: ['line']

Use httpx.Response.json() to avoid charset_normalizer issues:
DEBUG charset_normalizer : override steps (5) and chunk_size (512) as content does not fit (153 byte(s) given) parameters.
INFO charset_normalizer : ascii passed initial chaos probing. Mean measured chaos is 0.000000 %
DEBUG charset_normalizer : ascii should target any language(s) of ['Latin Based']
INFO charset_normalizer : ascii is most likely the one. Stopping the process.

Currently we have two kinds of user documentation:
* the about page[1] which is written in HTML and part of the web
application and can therefore link instance-specific pages
(like e.g. the preferences) via Jinja variables
* the Sphinx documentation[2] which is written in reStructuredText
and cannot link instance-specific pages since it doesn't know
which instance the user is using
The plan is to integrate the user documentation currently in Sphinx
into the application, so that it can also link instance specific pages.
We also want to enable the user documentation to be translated.
This commit implements the first step in this endeavor (see #722).

Since https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/354
the searx.network.stream(...) returns a tuple
This commits update the checker code according to
this function signature change.
webapp.py monkey-patches the Flask request global.
This commit adds a type cast so that e.g. Pyright[1]
doesn't show "Cannot access member" errors everywhere.
