[mod] switching from pyright to basedpyright (plus first rules)

pyrightconfig.json :

  for the paths searx, searxng_extra and tests, individual rules were
  defined (for example, in test fewer / different rules are needed than in the
  searx package

searx/engines/__builtins__.pyi :

  The builtin types that are added to the global namespace of a module by the
  intended monkey patching of the engine modules / replaces the previous
  filtering of the stdout using grep.

test.pyright_modified (utils/lib_sxng_test.sh) :

  static type check of local modified files not yet commited

make test :

  prerequisite 'test.pyright' has been replaced by 'test.pyright_modified'

searx/engines/__init__.py, searx/enginelib/__init__.py :

  First, minimal typifications that were considered necessary.

+.. attention::
+
+   Monkey-patching modules is a practice from the past that shouldn't be
+   expanded upon.  In the long run, there should be an engine class that can be
+   inherited.  However, as long as this class doesn't exist, and as long as all
+   engine modules aren't converted to an engine class, these builtin types will
+   still be needed.
