"""
Update searx/data/external_bangs.json using the duckduckgo bangs.

https://duckduckgo.com/newbang loads
* a javascript which provides the bang version ( https://duckduckgo.com/bv1.js )
* a JSON file which contains the bangs ( https://duckduckgo.com/bang.v260.js for example )

This script loads the javascript, then the bangs.

The javascript URL may change in the future ( for example https://duckduckgo.com/bv2.js ),
but most probably it will requires to update RE_BANG_VERSION
