[fix] drop engine dogpile
The engine was added in commit a4b07460 but now it shows new issues [1]. In the 90'th of the last century, dogpile had its own WEB index, but nowadays it is a meta-search engine [2] Powered by technology, Dogpile returns all the best results from leading search engines including Google and Yahoo! Using dogpile as an engine in SearXNG needs more investigation, a XPath solution like we have is not enough. It is questionable whether it still makes sense to investigate more into a meta-search engine with a ReCAPTCHA in front. With this patch the dogpile engine is removed [1] https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/202 [2] https://www.dogpile.com/support/aboutus Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>
