[refactor] typification of SearXNG / EngineResults

In [1] and [2] we discussed the need of a Result.results property and how we can
avoid unclear code.  This patch implements a class for the reslut-lists of
engines::

    searx.result_types.EngineResults

A simple example for the usage in engine development::

    from searx.result_types import EngineResults
    ...
    def response(resp) -> EngineResults:
        res = EngineResults()
        ...
        res.add( res.types.Answer(answer="lorem ipsum ..", url="https://example.org") )
        ...
        return res
