[feature]: support multilingual search setting #1

Can the developer add a preference for language settings? Sometimes, I need to replace the language in the search url with something other than English.

I think just change SearchIndexURL to a setting map.

file -> manifest-v3/background.js

const SearchIndexURL = 'https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/search-index.json';

Finally, thanks to the developers for review this Issue!

Technically, this extension can support more languages.

Here are some blogs about MDN localization strategies:

2021.03 MDN localization in March — Tier 1 locales unfrozen, and future plans
2021.02 MDN localization update, February 2021
2020.12 An update on MDN Web Docs’ localization strategy

As you can see, MDN itself has some issues with localization support.

I'll try to add options for Tier 1 languages when I have time.
