Search engine configuration

You can now configure new search engines directly in the Glide config, for example:

glide.search_engines.add({
  name: "Discogs",
  keyword: "disc",
  search_url:
    "https://www.discogs.com/search/?q={searchTerms}",

  // optional
  favicon_url: "https://www.discogs.com/favicon.ico",
  is_default: false,
});

With this example you could search using Discogs by focusing the address bar and typing disc<space>!

The glide.search_engines.add() function takes the same arguments as the chrome_settings_overrides.search_provider web extension manifest v2 object.
