Markus Heiser 1ec325adcc [mod] limiter -> botdetection: modularization and documentation
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.
