This patch fixes a bug reported by CI "Fetch traits" [1] (brave) and improves
other fetch traits functions (google, annas_archive & radio_browser).
brave:
File "/home/runner/work/searxng/searxng/searx/engines/brave.py", line 434, in fetch_traits
sxng_tag = region_tag(babel.Locale.parse(ui_lang, sep='-'))
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "/home/runner/work/searxng/searxng/searx/locales.py", line 155, in region_tag
Error: raise ValueError('%s missed a territory')
google:
change ERROR message about unknow UI language to INFO message
radio_browser:
country_list contains duplicates that differ only in upper/lower case
annas_archive:
for better diff; sort the persistence of the traits

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

babel.Locale.parse loads more than 60MB in RAM. The only purpose is to get:
LOCALE_NAMES - searx.data.LOCALES["LOCALE_NAMES"]
RTL_LOCALES - searx.data.LOCALES["RTL_LOCALES"]
This commit calls babel.Locale.parse when the translations are update from
weblate and stored in::
searx/data/locales.json
This file can be build by::
./manage data.locales
By store these variables in searx.data when the translations are updated we save
round about 65MB (usually 4 worker = 260MB of RAM saved.

Wikipedia's zh-classical is not zh_Hant (see doc-string of engines.wikipedia).
Fixed the example in the doc-string of locales.get_engine_locale() to 'zh_TW'.

This patch replaces the *full of magic* ``utils.match_language`` function by a
``locales.match_locale``. The ``locales.match_locale`` function is based on the
``locales.build_engine_locales`` introduced in 9ae409a0 [1].
In the past SearXNG did only support a search by a language but not in a region.
This has been changed a long time ago and regions have been added to SearXNG
core but not to the engines. The ``utils.match_language`` was the function to
handle the different aspects of language/regions in SearXNG core and the
supported *languages* in the engine. The ``utils.match_language`` did it with
some magic and works good for most use cases but fails in some edge case.
To replace the concurrence of languages and regions in the SearXNG core the
``locales.build_engine_locales`` was introduced in 9ae409a0 [1]. With the last
patches all engines has been migrated to a ``fetch_traits`` and a
language/region concept that is based on ``locales.build_engine_locales``.
To summarize: there is no longer a need for the ``locales.match_language``.

Implementations of the *traits* of the engines.
Engine's traits are fetched from the origin engine and stored in a JSON file in
the *data folder*. Most often traits are languages and region codes and their
mapping from SearXNG's representation to the representation in the origin search
engine.
To load traits from the persistence::
searx.enginelib.traits.EngineTraitsMap.from_data()
For new traits new properties can be added to the class::
searx.enginelib.traits.EngineTraits
.. hint::
Implementation is downward compatible to the deprecated *supported_languages
method* from the vintage implementation.
The vintage code is tagged as *deprecated* an can be removed when all engines
has been ported to the *traits method*.

When a user selects an unknown or invalid locale by using the search syntax:
!qw siemens :de-TW
Before this patch a UnknownLocaleError exception will be rasied:
```
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "SearXNG/searx/search/processors/online.py", line 154, in search
search_results = self._search_basic(query, params)
File "SearXNG/searx/search/processors/online.py", line 128, in _search_basic
self.engine.request(query, params)
File "SearXNG/searx/engines/qwant.py", line 98, in request
q_locale = get_engine_locale(params['language'], supported_languages, default='en_US')
File "SearXNG/searx/locales.py", line 216, in get_engine_locale
locale = babel.Locale.parse(searxng_locale, sep='-')
File "SearXNG/local/py3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/babel/core.py", line 330, in parse
raise UnknownLocaleError(input_id)
```
This patch implements a simple exception handling, since e.g. `de-TW` does not
exists `de` will be used to get engines locale. On invalid terms like `xy-XY`
the default will be returned.

The match_language function sometimes returns incorrect results which is why a
new function get_engine_locale is required.
A bugfix of the match_language is not easily possible, because there is almost
no documentation for it and already the call parameters are undefined. E.g. the
function processes values like the ones from yahoo::
"yahoo": [
"ar",
...
"zh_chs",
"zh_cht"
]
The get_engine_locale has been documented in detail, there is a clear
description of the assumptions as well as the requirements and approximation
rules (read doc-string for more details)::
Argument ``engine_locales`` is a python dict that maps *SearXNG locales* to
corresponding *engine locales*:
<engine>: {
# SearXNG string : engine-string
'ca-ES' : 'ca_ES',
'fr-BE' : 'fr_BE',
'fr-CA' : 'fr_CA',
'fr-CH' : 'fr_CH',
'fr' : 'fr_FR',
...
'pl-PL' : 'pl_PL',
'pt-PT' : 'pt_PT'
}
.. hint::
The *SearXNG locale* string has to be known by babel!
In the following you will find a comparison:
>>> import babel.languages
>>> from searx.utils import match_language
>>> from searx.locales import get_engine_locale
Assume we have an engine that supports the follwoing locales:
>>> lang_list = {
... "zh-CN": "zh_CN",
... "zh-HK": "zh_HK",
... "nl-BE": "nl_BE",
... "fr-CA": "fr_CA",
... }
Assumption:
A. When a user selects a language the results should be optimized according to
the selected language.
B. When user selects a language and a territory the results should be
optimized with first priority on territory and second on language.
----
Example: (Assumption A.)
A user selects region 'zh-TW' which should end in zh_HK
hint:
CN is 'Hans' and HK ('Hant') fits better to TW ('Hant')
>>> get_engine_locale('zh-TW', lang_list)
'zh_HK'
>>> lang_list[match_language('zh-TW', lang_list)]
'zh_CN'
----
Example: (Assumption A.)
A user selects only the language 'zh' which should end in CN
>>> get_engine_locale('zh', lang_list)
'zh_CN'
>>> lang_list[match_language('zh', lang_list)]
'zh_CN'
----
Example: (Assumption B.)
A user selects region 'fr-BE' which should end in nl-BE
hint:
priority should be on the territory the user selected. If the user
prefers 'fr' he will select 'fr' without a region tag.
>>> get_engine_locale('fr-BE', lang_list, default='unknown')
'nl_BE'
>>> match_language('fr-BE', lang_list, fallback='unknown')
'fr-CA'
----
Example: (Assumption A.)
A user selects only the language 'fr' which should end in fr_CA
>>> get_engine_locale('fr', lang_list)
'fr_CA'
>>> lang_list[match_language('fr', lang_list)]
'fr_CA'
----
The difference in priority on the territory is best shown with a engine that
supports the following locales:
>>> lang_list = {
... "fr-FR": "fr_FR",
... "fr-CA": "fr_CA",
... "en-GB": "en_GB",
... "nl-BE": "nl_BE",
... }
----
Example: (Assumption A.)
A user selects only a language
>>> get_engine_locale('en', lang_list)
'en_GB'
>>> match_language('en', lang_list)
'en-GB'
hint: the engine supports fr_FR and fr_CA since no territory is given, fr_FR
takes priority ..
>>> get_engine_locale('fr', lang_list)
'fr_FR'
>>> lang_list[match_language('fr', lang_list)]
'fr_FR'
----
Example: (Assumption B.)
A user selects region 'fr-BE' which should end in nl-BE
>>> get_engine_locale('fr-BE', lang_list)
'nl_BE'
>>> lang_list[match_language('fr-BE', lang_list)]
'fr_FR'
----
If the user selects a language and there are two locales like the following:
>>> lang_list = {
... "fr-BE": "fr_BE",
... "fr-CH": "fr_CH",
... }
>>>
>>> get_engine_locale('fr', lang_list)
'fr_BE'
>>> lang_list[match_language('fr', lang_list)]
'fr_BE'
Looks like both functions return the same value, but match_language depends on the
order of the dictionary (which is not predictable):
>>> lang_list = {
... "fr-CH": "fr_CH",
... "fr-BE": "fr_BE",
... }
>>> get_engine_locale('fr', lang_list)
'fr_BE'
>>> lang_list[match_language('fr', lang_list)]
'fr_CH'
>>>
The get_engine_locale selects the locale by looking at the "population percent"
and this percentage has an higher amount in BE (68.%) compared to CH (21%)

To improve modularization this patch:
- moves *locale* related implementation from the webapp.py application to the
locale.py module.
- The initialization of the locales is now done in the application (webapp) and
is no longer done while importing searx.locales.
In the searx.locales module a new dictionary named `LOCALE_BEST_MATCH` has been
added. In this dictionary we can map languages without a translation to
languages we have a translation for.
To fix#1303 zh-HK has been mapped to zh-Hant-TW (we do not need additional
translations of traditional Chinese)

statement if there is no assignment.
global-variable-not-assigned:
Using global for names but no assignment is done Used when a variable is
