Feat: Fall back to Bing when Brave refuses, and serve donate.webp when Bing blocks too

Browse Source 
Brave errors (e.g. its spending limit being hit) now fall back to Bing
like empty results do, with the error in a Brave Unavailable alert. If
Bing fails too (HTTP error or a page without results, which for Bing
means it's blocking us), a new papercraft donate.webp is served instead
of an AI image, and nothing is cached so the query works once either
search is back.

## Search queries and images
- When a query isn't already cached, it's sent to Brave Search, and to Bing if Brave returns nothing. On free.direct-img.link, it's sent to Openverse and/or Wikimedia Commons instead. Searches and image downloads are made from our servers, so your IP address isn't shared with these search providers or the sites images come from.
- When a query isn't already cached, it's sent to Brave Search, and to Bing if Brave returns nothing or is unavailable. On free.direct-img.link, it's sent to Openverse and/or Wikimedia Commons instead. Searches and image downloads are made from our servers, so your IP address isn't shared with these search providers or the sites images come from.
- Each query (with its `i` and `src` options) and the image it returned are cached for up to 90 days. Failed searches are remembered for 24 hours.
- Cached images are shared: anyone requesting the same query and options gets the same image.
