[mod] clarify the difference of the default category and subgrouping
This PR does no functional change it is just an attempt to make more clear in the code, what a default category is and what a subcategory is. The previous name 'others' leads to confusion with the **category 'other'**. If a engine is not assigned to a category, the default is assigned:: DEFAULT_CATEGORY = 'other' If an engine has only one category and this category is shown as tab in the user interface, this engine has no further subgrouping:: NO_SUBGROUPING = 'without further subgrouping' Related: - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/1604 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/1545 Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>
