This works for me:

  (setopt url-mime-language-string "en")

It seems that if your request doesn't contain an "Accept-language: "
spec you are blocked.  And this is the default behavior of eww.

But all the other anti-bot tests seem to succeed, so with just the above
setting I am finally able to use public searx instances with eww
(it has the effect that "Accept-language: " is used).
