Markus Heiser bd593d0bad [fix] granian: enabling debug on searxng-docker causes server crash (#4985) ...

When debugging is enabled, the context in which the process is running (uWSGI or
`Flask.run` server) was previously checked [1]. This check has not yet taken the
granian server into account.

----

The check is actually only required for the developer environment (`make run`)
[2] and is intended to prevent double loading of modules when initializing a
Flask server [3].

In the long term, we should find a more robust solution that explicitly enables
the specific features of a development environment via switches. Further
information on this problematic code can be found in [4][5][6].
