In the past, some files were tested with the standard profile, others with a
profile in which most of the messages were switched off ... some files were not
checked at all.
- ``PYLINT_SEARXNG_DISABLE_OPTION`` has been abolished
- the distinction ``# lint: pylint`` is no longer necessary
- the pylint tasks have been reduced from three to two
1. ./searx/engines -> lint engines with additional builtins
2. ./searx ./searxng_extra ./tests -> lint all other python files

This patch was inspired by the discussion around PR-2882 [2]. The goals of this
patch are:
1. Convert plugin searx.plugin.limiter to normal code [1]
2. isolation of botdetection from the limiter [2]
3. searx/{tools => botdetection}/config.py and drop searx.tools
4. in URL /config, 'limiter.enabled' is true only if the limiter is really
enabled (Redis is available).
This patch moves all the code that belongs to botdetection into namespace
searx.botdetection and code that belongs to limiter is placed in namespace
searx.limiter.
Tthe limiter used to be a plugin at some point botdetection was added, it was
not a plugin. The modularization of these two components was long overdue.
With the clear modularization, the documentation could then also be organized
according to the architecture.

To test:
- check the app works without the limiter, check `/config`
- check the app works with the limiter and with the token, check `/config`
- make docs.live .. and read
- http://0.0.0.0:8000/admin/searx.limiter.html
- http://0.0.0.0:8000/src/searx.botdetection.html#botdetection

For correct determination of the IP to the request the function
botdetection.get_real_ip() is implemented. This fonction is used in the
ip_limit and link_token method of the botdetection and it is used in the
self_info plugin.
A documentation about the X-Forwarded-For header has been added.

- counting requests in LONG_WINDOW and BURST_WINDOW is not needed when the
request is validated by the link_token method [1]
- renew a ping-key on validation [2], this is needed for infinite scrolling,
where no new token (CSS) is loaded. / this does not fix the BURST_MAX issue in
the vanilla limiter
- normalize the counter names of the ip_limit method to 'ip_limit.*'
- just integrate the ip_limit method straight forward in the limiter plugin /
non intermediate code --> ip_limit now returns None or a werkzeug.Response
object that can be passed by the plugin to the flask application / non
intermediate code that returns a tuple

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.
