Markus Heiser 5720844fcd [doc] rearranges Settings & Engines docs for better readability
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

Markus Heiser b1912607ae [mod] replace /help by /info pages and include pages in project docs
This patch implements a bolierplate to share content from info-pages of the
SearXNG instance (URL /info) with the project documentation (path /docs/user).

The info pages are using Markdown (CommonMark), to include them in the project
documentation (reST) the myst-parser [1] is used in the Sphinx-doc build chain.

If base_url is known (defined in settings.yml) links to the instance are also
inserted into the project documentation::

    searxng_extra/docs_prebuild

Martin Fischer 61935c72ef [fix] remove broken ? search operator
The ? search operator has been broken for some time and
currently only raises the question why it's still there.

## Context ##

The query "Paris !images" searches for "Paris" in the "images" category.

Once upon a time Searx supported "Paris ?images" to search for "Paris"
in the currently enabled categories and the "images" category.

The feature makes sense ... the ? syntax does not.
We will hopefully introduce a +!images syntax in the future.

Fixes #702.

Markus Heiser e9fff4fde6 doc: proofread of the all reST sources (no content change)
Normalize reST sources with best practice and KISS in mind.

to name a few points:

- simplify reST tables
- make use of ``literal`` markup for monospace rendering
- fix code-blocks for better rendering in HTML
- normalize section header markup
- limit all lines to a maximum of 79 characters
- add option -H to the sudo command used in code blocks
- drop useless indentation of lists
- ...
