sear.c for Debian

sear.c is used as a lightweight replacement for SearX that proxies and caches
search results from the Google web search engine. The main advantages over
SearX are speed and simplicity.

* run the daemon - it starts listening on HTTP port 7327 (remember it by
	picturing phone keyboard buttons with letters SEAR (; )
* optional: create a reverse proxy for HTTPS
* navigate to http://localhost:7327 and do a couple of searches to see if
	everything works
* the horseshoe button redirects directly to the first result without wasting
	time on the results page. use if you feel lucky. (BP)
* the image button searches for images and embeds them directly from servers

systemd users can start with service sear.c start
