docs+skill: add searxng-search optional skill and documentation
Closes the remaining gaps from PR #11562 that weren't covered by the
core SearXNG integration landed in #20823.

- optional-skills/research/searxng-search/ — installable skill with
  SKILL.md (curl-based usage, category support, Python example) and
  searxng.sh helper script for health checks and instance queries
- website/docs/user-guide/configuration.md — SearXNG added to the
  Web Search Backends section (5 backends, backend table, per-capability
  split config example, correct search-only note)
- website/docs/reference/environment-variables.md — SEARXNG_URL row
- website/docs/reference/optional-skills-catalog.md — searxng-search entry

The core SearXNG code, OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS, hermes tools picker, and tests
were already on main via #20823.  This commit is purely additive docs +
the optional skill scaffold.
