Looking at the current HTML for the Startpage front page, the previous
footer logo element is no longer present. This change scrapes the "sc"
parameter from one of the hidden HTML form elements, which should
(hopefully) be a bit more stable long term, since that form is used by
Startpage to submit requests to the engine.
## What does this PR do?
This PR prepares for removing `httpx`, and reverts back to `requests`.
## Why is this change important?
`httpx` hasn't proven itself to be faster or better than `requests`. On the other
hand it has caused issues on Windows.
=============================================
Please update your environment to use requests instead of httpx.

In case of CAPTCHA raise a SearxEngineCaptchaException and suspend for 7 days.
When get_sc_code() fails raise a SearxEngineResponseException and suspend for 7
days.

Startpage has introduced new anti-scraping measures that make SearXNG instances
run into captchas:
1. some arguments has been removed and a new `sc` has been added.
2. search path changed from `do/search` to `sp/search`
3. POST request is no longer needed

The language_support variable is set to True by default,
and set to False in only 5 engines.
Except the documentation and the /config URL, this variable is not used.
This commit remove the variable definition in the engines, and
set value according to supported_languages length: False when the length is 0,
True otherwise.
Close#2485

datetime.parser.parse() does not know the Spanish date format which
leads to a ValueError. Fixes#1870
