Since #2291 is merged, it is recommend to use::
use_default_settings=True
1. Add a template file use_default_settings.yml::
SEARX_SETTINGS_TEMPLATE="${REPO_ROOT}/utils/templates/etc/searx/use_default_settings.yml"
2. In Chapter "Configuration" recommend to make use of
'use_default_settings=True' and describe it
3. Rewrite of docs/admin/settings.rst
- move chapter 'settings.yml location' to the top
- update and split chapter 'Global Settings'
4. Add environment SEARX_SETTINGS_TEMPLATE to .config.sh
5. Use environment $SEARX_SETTINGS_TEMPLATE in the utils/searx.sh script

The $DOCS_BUILD variable (like all BUILD variables) in the lxc environment::
sudo -H ./utils/lxc.sh cmd searx-archlinux make docs
is different from running build process in the HOST::
make docs
with kernel-include directive we can use the environment variables in the reST
documents to address the correct file location of the include.
