Markus Heiser da28f5280b [fix] limiter: don't hard code settings folder to /etc/searxng
The location of the local settings depends on environment ``SEARXNG_SETTINGS_PATH``
and can be different from ``/etc/searxng``.  Issue was reported on Matrix [1].

To get the location function ``searx.settings_loader.get_user_cfg_folder()``
should be used.

Markus Heiser 542f7d0d7b [mod] pylint all files with one profile / drop PYLINT_SEARXNG_DISABLE_OPTION
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

Markus Heiser d13a8f6453 [mod] document server:public_instance & remove it out of the botdetection
- the option server:public_instance lacks some documentation
- the processing of this option belongs in the limiter and not
  in botdetection module

Markus Heiser fd814aac86 [mod] isolation of botdetection from the limiter
This patch was inspired by the discussion around PR-2882 [2].  The goals of this
patch are:

1. Convert plugin searx.plugin.limiter to normal code [1]
2. isolation of botdetection from the limiter [2]
3. searx/{tools => botdetection}/config.py and drop searx.tools
4. in URL /config, 'limiter.enabled' is true only if the limiter is really
   enabled (Redis is available).

This patch moves all the code that belongs to botdetection into namespace
searx.botdetection and code that belongs to limiter is placed in namespace
searx.limiter.

Tthe limiter used to be a plugin at some point botdetection was added, it was
not a plugin.  The modularization of these two components was long overdue.
With the clear modularization, the documentation could then also be organized
according to the architecture.

To test:

- check the app works without the limiter, check `/config`
- check the app works with the limiter and with the token, check `/config`
- make docs.live .. and read
