This patch replaces the *full of magic* ``utils.match_language`` function by a
``locales.match_locale``. The ``locales.match_locale`` function is based on the
``locales.build_engine_locales`` introduced in 9ae409a0 [1].
In the past SearXNG did only support a search by a language but not in a region.
This has been changed a long time ago and regions have been added to SearXNG
core but not to the engines. The ``utils.match_language`` was the function to
handle the different aspects of language/regions in SearXNG core and the
supported *languages* in the engine. The ``utils.match_language`` did it with
some magic and works good for most use cases but fails in some edge case.
To replace the concurrence of languages and regions in the SearXNG core the
``locales.build_engine_locales`` was introduced in 9ae409a0 [1]. With the last
patches all engines has been migrated to a ``fetch_traits`` and a
language/region concept that is based on ``locales.build_engine_locales``.
To summarize: there is no longer a need for the ``locales.match_language``.

With the language and region tags from the EngineTraitsMap the handling of
SearXNG's tags of languages and regions has been normalized and is no longer
a *mystery*. The "languages" became "locales" that are supported by babel and
by this, the update_engine_traits.py can be simplified a lot.
Other code places can be simplified as well, but these simplifications
should (respectively can) only be done when none of the engines work with the
deprecated EngineTraits.supported_languages interface anymore.
This commit replaces searx.languages by searx.sxng_locales and fix the naming of
some names from "language" to "locale" (e.g. language_codes --> sxng_locales).

Implementations of the *traits* of the engines.
Engine's traits are fetched from the origin engine and stored in a JSON file in
the *data folder*. Most often traits are languages and region codes and their
mapping from SearXNG's representation to the representation in the origin search
engine.
To load traits from the persistence::
searx.enginelib.traits.EngineTraitsMap.from_data()
For new traits new properties can be added to the class::
searx.enginelib.traits.EngineTraits
.. hint::
Implementation is downward compatible to the deprecated *supported_languages
method* from the vintage implementation.
The vintage code is tagged as *deprecated* an can be removed when all engines
has been ported to the *traits method*.

In PR #1071 the language catalog of dailymotion has been cleaned up, before
there had been over 7000 "languages" in the catalog.
As a side effect of this clean-up the language & region catalog in SearXNG has
been reduced [1].
This patch reduce the ``min_engines_per_lang`` from 13 to 12 to get the missed
languages back in language & region catalog of SearXNG.

SearXNG shows two different things:
region:
"de-CH" is the equivalent of "Schweiz (de)" in DDG.
languages:
"en" doesn't say anything about the location. It is up the engines to do their
best to select English results without a region.

Bangs with a `*` suffix (e.g. `!!d*`) overwrite Bangs with the same
prefix (e.g. `!!d`) [1]. This can be avoid when a non printable character is
used to tag a LEAF_KEY.
