2023-07-01[doc] rearranges Settings & Engines docs for better readabilityMarkus Heiser
We have built up detailed documentation of the *settings* and the *engines* over the past few years. However, this documentation was still spread over various chapters and was difficult to navigate in its entirety. This patch rearranges the Settings & Engines documentation for better readability. To review new ordered docs:: make docs.clean docs.live Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>

2023-05-29[mod] limiter -> botdetection: modularization and documentationMarkus Heiser
In order to be able to meet the outstanding requirements, the implementation is modularized and supplemented with documentation. This patch does not contain functional change, except it fixes issue #2455 ---- Aktivate limiter in the settings.yml and simulate a bot request by:: curl -H 'Accept-Language: de-DE,en-US;q=0.7,en;q=0.3' \ -H 'Accept: text/html' -H 'User-Agent: xyz' \ -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip' \ 'http://127.0.0.1:8888/search?q=foo' In the LOG: DEBUG searx.botdetection.link_token : missing ping for this request: ..... Since ``BURST_MAX_SUSPICIOUS = 2`` you can repeat the query above two time before you get a "Too Many Requests" response.
