Minor refactoring for clarification

Executable renamed to "run" to avoid confusion with pip installed script

Updated heroku deploy button to use the heroku-app branch, which by
default enforces HTTPS

Added instructions for enforcing HTTPS on various deployment options,
with note about how this isn't a required task.

Updated setup.py description to use improved app description

Since the instance is destroyed and rebuilt after inactivity, config settings will be reset once the app enters downtime. If you have configuration settings active that you'd like to keep between periods of downtime (like dark mode for example), you could instead add `*/20 7-23 * * * curl -d "dark=1" -X POST https://<your heroku app name>.herokuapp.com/config > /home/<username>/whoogle-refresh` to keep these settings more or less permanent, and still keep the app from entering downtime when you're using it.
### HTTPS Enforcement
Only needed if your setup requires Flask to redirect to HTTPS on its own -- generally this is something that doesn't need to be handled by Whoogle Search.
- Heroku: Enforced by default
- Docker: Add `--build-arg use_https=1` to your run command
- Pip/Pipx: Add the `--https-only` flag to the end of the `whoogle-search` command
- Default `run` script: Modify the script locally to include the `--https-only` flag at the end of the python run command
Available config values are `near`, `nojs`, `dark` and `url`.
