[mod] DuckDuckGo: reversed engineered & upgrade to data_type: traits_v1 Partial reverse engineering of the DuckDuckGo (DDG) engines including a improved language and region handling based on the enigne.traits_v1 data. - DDG Lite - DDG Instant Answer API - DDG Images - DDG Weather docs/src/searx.engine.duckduckgo.rst: Online documentation of the DDG engines (make docs.live) searx/data/engine_traits.json Add data type "traits_v1" generated by the fetch_traits() functions from: - "duckduckgo" (WEB), - "duckduckgo images" and - "duckduckgo weather" and remove data from obsolete data type "supported_languages". searx/autocomplete.py: Reversed engineered Autocomplete from DDG. Supports DDG's languages. searx/engines/duckduckgo.py: - fetch_traits(): Fetch languages & regions from DDG. - get_ddg_lang(): Get DDG's language identifier from SearXNG's locale. DDG defines its languages by region codes. DDG-Lite does not offer a language selection to the user, only a region can be selected by the user. - Cache ``vqd`` value: The vqd value depends on the query string and is needed for the follow up pages or the images loaded by a XMLHttpRequest (DDG images). The ``vqd`` value of a search term is stored for 10min in the redis DB. - DDG Lite engine: reversed engineered request method with improved Language and region support and better ``vqd`` handling. searx/engines/duckduckgo_definitions.py: DDG Instant Answer API The instant answers API does not support languages, or at least we could not find out how language support should work. It seems that most of the features are based on English terms. searx/engines/duckduckgo_images.py: DDG Images Reversed engineered request method. Improved language and region handling based on cookies and the enigne.traits_v1 data. Response: add image format to the result list searx/engines/duckduckgo_weather.py: DDG Weather Improved language and region handling based on cookies and the enigne.traits_v1 data.

[doc] rearranges Settings & Engines docs for better readability 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.
