Use farside.link for frontend alternatives in results (#560)

* Integrate Farside into Whoogle

When instances are ratelimited (when a captcha is returned instead of
the user's search results) the user can now hop to a new instance via
Farside, a new backend service that redirects users to working instances
of a particular frontend. In this case, it presents a user with a
Farside link to a new Whoogle (or Searx) instance instead, so that the
user can resume their search.

For the generated Farside->Whoogle link, the generated link includes the
user's current Whoogle configuration settings as URL params, to ensure a
more seamless transition between instances. This doesn't translate to
the Farside->Searx link, but potentially could with some changes.

* Expand conversion of config<->url params

Config settings can now be translated to and from URL params using a
predetermined set of "safe" keys (i.e. config settings that easily
translate to URL params).

* Allow jumping instances via Farside when ratelimited

When instances are ratelimited (when a captcha is returned instead of
the user's search results) the user can now hop to a new instance via
Farside, a new backend service that redirects users to working instances
of a particular frontend. In this case, it presents a user with a
Farside link to a new Whoogle (or Searx) instance instead, so that the
user can resume their search.
