e8706fb738 [fix] engine & network issues / documentation and type annotations
This patch fixes some quirks and issues related to the engines and the network.
Each engine has its own network and this network was broken for the following
engines[1]:

- archlinux
- bing
- dailymotion
- duckduckgo
- google
- peertube
- startpage
- wikipedia

Since the files have been touched anyway, the type annotaions of the engine
modules has also been completed so that error messages from the type checker are
no longer reported.

4d4aa13e1f [mod] remove obsolete EngineTraits.supported_languages
All engines has been migrated from ``supported_languages`` to the
``fetch_traits`` concept.  There is no longer a need for the obsolete code that
implements the ``supported_languages`` concept.

6e5f22e558 [mod] replace engines_languages.json by engines_traits.json
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*.
